COLUMBUS, OH (Aug. 18, 2003)– Friends of Episcopal Retirement Homes (ERH) will gather in Columbus on Sunday, October 5, to celebrate past triumphs and new beginnings at the Eighth Annual Jazz Benefit Brunch.

Last year, more than 150 members of the ERH family – volunteers, donors and committee members, among others – came together to support ERH’s Central Ohio programs and services, and in doing so raised over $20,000. Tickets to attend this year’s Jazz Benefit Brunch are just $50 per person.

The Tom Battenburg Trio will provide musical entertainment, and a silent auction will feature several unique items donated by Columbus-area friends, neighbors and businesses. In addition, attendees will be offered a “sneak peek” of Stoney Brook, the premier adult living community currently being planned for the Columbus area. Stoney Brook promises a progressive design and retreat-like living experience.
