Arizona Assistance in Health Care held its inaugural M*A*S*H fundraiser on Saturday, November 6, 2010 at Westside Complex.
It was a sea of camouflage as guests arrived in fatigues and scrubs, dressed as their favorite character from the the former TV series MASH. Enjoying cocktails from 'Rosie's Bar,' attendees bid on an impressive array of silent auction items and got their grub at the 'Mess Hall,' reminiscent of the popular series.
A live auction included a package for four guests to attend Jimmy Kimmel Live in Los Angeles, a week in Ocean Isle, North Carolina and a Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals package.
Jodi Light and The Shining Star Band provided entertainment while guests danced the night away.
