The Bearcat Ball
The Associate Board hosts the Bearcat Ball to benefit the
Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago's Pediatric Charity Care
Program, which offers prosthetic devices and specialized treatment
to children with disabilities whose families cannot afford
this care. The Bearcat Ball is named for the Stutz Bearcat,
a luxury automobile manufactured in the 1920's. It is purported
to have carried the heroes and heroines of author F. Scott
Fitzgerald's day to yacht clubs and secluded roadhouses. The
ultimate statement of class, style and luxury, the Bearcat
is as much a symbol of 1920's youth as hip flasks and raccoon
coats.
