The numbers are in for “Harlem Nights,” The Jimmy Rollins Foundation event that took place on June 20^th at the Union Transfer, 1026 Spring Garden St, Philadelphia, PA 19123. According to Craig Kaplan, who helped run the event, the foundation raised over $150,000. D.G. Yuengling & Son donated their Light Lager brand beer to over 350 people who were planning on attending the event.

It looked like a scene from Boardwalk Empire or the Great Gatsby as Phillies players and guests donned 1920’s attire (see link to photos here: http://phl17.com/2013/06/20/photos-jimmy-rollins-harlem-nights-charity-event/#jp-carousel-32327 ). Jimmy and Johari Rollins hosted this entertaining event with a crowd that pranced, danced, and dined to authentic jazz music.  Tweed and flapper attire could be seen on the stage and on the dance floor as most everyone got into the spirit of the night

Highlights of the night included:

-  Décor and dress reminiscent of the 1930’s (see photos)

- Cole Hamels, Kyle Kendrick, Laynce Nix, Carlos Ruiz among players attending and dressed

- Both the $25,000 Title Sponsor tickets and the $15,000 exclusive Cocktail reception sponsorships were sold out

- Live Jazz by CTO Entertainmnet
