Best Legs Contestant Jim Danis

Twenty one men in the Miami Valley are macho enough to sport high heels to make their legs look their best, as they compete for the annual Best Legs contest to benefit Clothes That Work.  A local non-profit, celebrating their 15th year, CTW provides professional clothing and image consulting for job seekers in Montgomery County.  For $5 a vote you can help select the Best Legs.  Voting in the contest continues until May 10th and contestant Jim Danis is really taking the competition seriously, offering to put company logo’s on his legs for a $100 donation.  If your company is looking for some additional exposure at an affordable rate for a good cause, my legs are the place for them,” explained Danis. “Truly, this is a fun event and I’m trying to raise as much money as I can to help support Clothes That Work, because Clothes That Work has provided so much support to thousands of people in our community.”  He raised $200 at  Monday’s Dayton Rotary meeting  and shared that if he got to $500 Square One Salon has offered to wax his legs for free!  

The winner of the Best Legs Contest will be announced after the 6th annual Hunks in Heel race at The Green on Saturday, May 11th.  There’s still time to join the Hunk racers, with over 100 men scheduled to  race around The Greene in high heels in support of the important women in their lives. Event festivities being at noon on May 11. For a registration form, please visit:http://www.clothesthatwork.org/events-2/events.html.  Fans are invited to join the crowd for this fast paced fun filled afternoon.  As in years past, the patio’s of Brio and McCormick and Schmick will be filled with cheering sections for the teams of racers.   From past experience I’d like to share that often the shoe selection by the runners is often the most entertaining part of the event!  I’ll be calling the race along with event co-chair Todd Crawford and look forward to see what surprises the racers have in store for us.  Over the years,  teams have  come out in themed costumes, in drag, with with matching pedicures, who knows what we’ll see this year. 

You can also support CTW by purchasing a raffle ticket online or at the event  for $5  for a  “Do Dayton” Staycation! One winner will  win  a Dayton experience package that includes:

Vince Corrado, 2009 Best Legs Champion

It takes a real man to strut his stuff in a pair of high heels and Clothes That Work (CTW)  has been lucky enough to repeatedly count on some truly philanthropic guys in our community.  On Tues, March 8th photographer Andy Snow will be doing a photo shoot, capturing the contestants for the 20111 Online Best Leg Competition at The Wine Loft at The Greene. Last year’s online contest raised over $4000, one $5 vote at a time, to allow CTW to continue to empower job seeker with clothing and confidence.

Friends and fans of these hunks are invited to join the fun and start the voting for our 2011 Hunks in Heels as we host a kick off party from 5 -7pm. Admission is $20 per guest and will include appetizers, 2 glasses of wine or beer, and 2 mardi gras bead necklaces (it is Fat Tuesday, after all).  Guests can award the beads to their choice for best legs!  Additional beads (votes) will be available for $5 each.

Marty Beyer, Partner, Sebaly Shillito + Dyer

Ron Burdge, Attorney, Burdge Law Office

Sean Costello, Assistant IP Manager, Freund, Freeze & Arnold

Bryan Suddith, Executive Director, Greater Dayton Chapter at A Kid Again

Mark Williams, Chief Executive Officer, Partner at Elements IV Interiors

CJ Webster, Regional Sales Manager at LexisNexis Group & Generation Dayton Representative

and more being added every day!

If you know a hunk we need to include just send us an email and we’ll see what we can do to recruit them.    Can’t make the party on Fat Tuesday?  Don’t worry- we’ll have the online voting up soon after the party for you to check out Dayton’s Best Legs!

Be sure to put May 14th on your calendar for the actual Hunks in Heels race held on the square at The Greene.  Last year we had over 150 hunks competing, we expect even more this year!

In the meantime, enjoy highlights from last year:
