Indianapolis, IN (PRWEB) December 23, 2004 -- The Rock Bottom Restaurant
& Brewery, located at 10 West Washington, will host the 'Miracle on
Washington Street' on Christmas Day from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. This event will feed
and clothe over 450 of Indianapolis’ homeless and displaced from area
shelters.
'Miracle on Washington Street' will brighten the holidays for
those in need by providing luxury bus rides to the Rock Bottom Brewery. Upon
arrival, guests will be treated to a warm holiday meal of turkey, ham and all
the trimmings. All children will be provided with much needed winter coats,
shoes, toys, candy and an opportunity to visit with Santa and have their picture
taken.
“Here at the Miracle, Christmas takes on a whole new meaning,”
stated Chad Ashley, General Manager, Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery. “We
bring the community together for a day filled with attentive service,
overwhelming abundance and dignity. Gone is the casual décor typical to most
breweries. Instead, our guests dine on white linen table cloths, china and real
silverware. We want our guests, especially the children, to truly enjoy the
holiday.”
This day is made possible by the generosity of countless
community sponsors and partners including Simon Properties who has co-hosted a
toy drive, Kittles, Piazza Produce, Marsh Supermarkets, American Linen, Sara
Lee, Tyson and Reinhardt Foods and The Rock Bottom Foundation.
From a
single event in Denver in 1996, the Miracle Events have grown in response to the
tremendous need across the country. In 2004, over 12,000 disadvantaged people in
ELEVEN cities will receive an outpouring of community generosity through the
Rock Bottom Foundation Miracle Events. These miraculous Events directly address
the needs of homeless and hungry men, women and children in our communities by
providing them with a delicious meal, shoes, jackets, diapers, toiletries, baby
food and toys during the holidays.
