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:
