Blondes vs. Brunettes is a flag football game played by the area's best and brightest women who are dedicated to making a difference. Two teams of women – divided to reflect the age-old rivalry between blondes and brunettes – compete in the fun, but competitive, game to help raise awareness and funds for the Alzheimer's Association - Heart of America Chapter. In addition, each player works to raise money to benefit the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer's Association. For more information about playing or coaching, contact Trisha McClanahan at 913.831.3888 or trisha.mcclanahan@alz.org.
