Sixth Annual Voices Carry for Auberle - 9/28/10

Huntington Bank invited guests to belt it out at the Sixth Annual Voices Carry for Auberle karaoke event at Heinz Field. Local politicians, television personalities, and musicians gathered to rally around Auberle’s mission to “help troubled children and families heal themselves.” Although the crowd was initially shy, emcee Randy Bauman, DVE Morning Show co-host and October WHIRL cover boy, along with the silliness of the celebrities’ songs, encouraged guests to get up and dance. A crowd favorite was “Play That Funky Music,” sung by the legendary Donnie Iris. The event was “a fun way to raise money, but at the same time remember the serious reason why we’re here,” says Annie Shultheis, development associate at Auberle. An impressive $115,000 was raised to “make sure all of our kids have everything they need,” Shultheis added.
