This all student-run event will take place at The Summit Bar and Grill in Iowa City on Thursday, December 1st.   Donations of $10 at the door will get you an all you can eat buffet of finger foods, wings, fruit and more!  The Summit bartenders and waitstaff are graciously donating ALL of their tips to The Leukemia Research Foundation and 100% of proceeds of this event will go to The LRF!  Raffle and auction with prizes too…if you are near Iowa City or know anyone who is, don’t miss out!
