HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The United Way is hosting an event tonight that is a fundraiser and an opportunity for ladies to get together.

"It is the girls night of the century," said Lisa Gleason with the United Way. "Come and be a part of Shop Local, Give Local."

The event will have 14 boutiques at Memorial Hall with their wares for sale and a fashion show to allow ladies to get their Christmas shopping going and help a great cause.

"It starts at 4:30 p.m. if you want to come a little early, and we go until 8:30 p.m. tonight," said Amy Kraft, campaign chair for the United Way. "What woman doesn't like to see a fashion show? We have a nice little surprise before that. That will be at 6:30 p.m."

Tickets for the event are $20 online or $25 at the door. The vendors are donating 20% of sales today to United Way of Reno County.
