 The Black Tie-optional Red Ribbon Ball is Southern Colorado AIDS Project’s premier fund-raising event and the only AIDS Ball in Colorado. In an era of increasing funding restrictions, that effectively cut Federal funding for AIDS Service Organizations, community support of fundraisers is vital. S-CAP plays a critical role in our community: educating citizens on the risks and realities of living with the disease, combating prejudice, testing for HIV, and providing prevention services, counseling, and help to people and families living with HIV/AIDS to gain medical care, housing, food, and nutritional support.

Roseanne Barr, ranked #9 in Comedy Central’s list of “100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time” comes to us from her ongoing engagement as the headliner at the Sahara Hotel’s Congo Room in Las Vegas. She is also active with her production company, Full Moon and High Tide, which recently signed a deal to produce original programming for VH1, and produced Roseanne’s comedy special, Roseanne Barr: Blonde and Bitchin’, which aired on HBO.

Also appearing: Randy Rodriguez performs the best of Sinatra, Dean Martin, Elvis and Michael Bublé along with rock, swing, Latin and all-time party favorites. DJ Jonathan Starr spins the greatest dance hits of the 70's and 80's and Out Loud: The Colorado Springs Men’s Chorus will sing selections from their repertoire.
 

Doors open at 6 p.m. Tickets are $125 per person and are available online by visiting the S-CAP website, www.s-cap.org, and following the links to the Red Ribbon Ball or by calling the Southern Colorado AIDS Project at 719-578-9092. A $150 ticket option includes a VIP reception at The Famous Steakhouse prior to the event. The event includes dinner, dancing, silent and live auctions.
