    7 best spring charity events every young Dallasite should attend

    Doing good in Dallas is also fun if you're a young professional — especially with this guide to the most charitable YP events of the spring season.

     

     CASAblanca kicked off the year on January 28, followed by the Slipper Club Gala & Silent Auction on February 4, but trust us: there's plenty more revelry to be had. From fighting cancer with the ultimate chili cook-off to a black-tie gala benefiting the Salvation Army to everyone's favorite Young Friends of Wilkinson Center White Party, these are the events you should put on your calendar immediately.

     

     Ronald McDonald House Young Friends Party
     March 3, Community Beer Co.
    Already in its 14th year, this annual shindig hosted by the YPs of Ronald McDonald House of Dallas is a spring staple. The Jordan Kahn Orchestra gets this dance party started, with Community Beer Co. brews and tasty offerings from Food Glorious Food to satiate those late-night cravings — because the party doesn't stop 'til midnight. Proceeds help provide a home-away-from-home for families of children receiving serious medical treatment. Tickets are $85 for members and $100 for non-members.

     

     Young Texans Against Cancer Chili Cook-Off for a Cure
     April 8, The Foundry
    Each year, YTAC Dallas pits the best amateur chili masters against each another to raise funds for local organizations specializing in cancer research and patient outreach. Teams cook up their best chili dishes and battle it out for bragging rights while guests sample each station. A huge outdoor patio, live music, and lots and lots of beer keep the party simmering all afternoon. Tickets are $25 for members, $35 for non-members, and $40 at the door.

     

     Yellow Rose Gala
     April 8, Renaissance Dallas Hotel
    This blooming affair is so buzzworthy it’s earned a place on two must-attend spring event lists — not only because the Yellow Rose Gala Foundation is our official 2017 charity partner (thanks to your votes), but because the Wynne family revitalized this wildly successful black-tie gala after a 15-year hiatus. Oh, and because they landed music icons The Temptations for this year’s entertainment. For you 20-somethings, go watch My Girl and you’ll get it. Tickets start at $150 and proceeds benefit the National MS Society’s research and initiatives.

     

     Echelon 30M Gala
     April 29, Ritz-Carlton, Dallas
    We’re anxiously awaiting details on the fifth annual 30M Gala, hosted by the young professionals group that supports the good work of the Salvation Army. But if history truly does repeat itself, then we anticipate killer entertainment like last year’s Inside Out Band to crank up the tunes. Guests can enjoy dressing in spring cocktail or black-tie attire and raising both spirits and funds for the North Texas community. Check back here for details.

     

     Cinco de Derby
     May 5, Marie Gabrielle Restaurant and Gardens
    Last spring, two of the city’s most anticipated Derby soirees fell on the same day, forcing philanthropic YPs to place their bets on one or the other. Fortunately this year that's not the case, which means you’ll need two Insta-worthy sundresses and a sombrero. Think Ahead Group’s Cinco de Derby fiesta offers margaritas and Tex-Mex to those sporting guayaberas, while mint juleps will be on hand for seersucker aficionados. Proceeds help Center for BrainHealth and its Discovery Group program improve the quality of life for Alzheimer’s patients. Early bird tickets are $55 and jump to $75 after March 1.

     

     Day at the Races
     May 6, Lee Park
    The Lee Park Junior Conservancy does Derby right, and if you can’t make it to Churchill Downs, it’s the next best place to be. Come dressed in your Sunday best and spend the afternoon sipping mint juleps, playing lawn games, strolling the park, snacking on Southern fare, and dancing to live music. You’ll definitely want to splurge on a head-turning hat — this is a competition, after all. Tickets are $125 and have yet to go on sale, but your purchase supports the preservation and conservation of Arlington Hall, and further developments of Lee Park.

     

     The White Party
     June 10, Saint Ann Restaurant Bar & Grill
    After a brief stint at Sixty Five Hundred last year, the party planners at Young Friends of Wilkinson Center are moving the late-night fête back to Saint Ann Restaurant & Bar. Which we don't mind because we just want to be there — wherever there is. And you will too, because when else can you rock a little white cocktail dress in June without breaking the cardinal wedding guest rule? The only fashion faux pas here is flaunting any other color. Tickets are $100 and proceeds help local families facing difficult times maintain self-sufficiency, dignity, and respect.

    Fugitive News

    Dallas Police Department arrests 99 fugitives in summer crime program

    The Dallas Police Department has a new round of arrests in Operation Justice Trail, a coordinated effort led by Police Chief Daniel Comeaux to apprehend individuals with violent felony warrants, with 99 fugitives arrested and taken into custody during June.

    The program is a partnership between the Dallas Police Department and the United States Marshals Service which began on May 1, with a goal to identify and take into custody violent criminals. During the firest month of May, a nearly-identical haul of 98 violent felons were arrested, and the initiative will continue through the summer.

    “Our goal is simple: to make Dallas the safest large city in America,” Chief Comeaux says in a statement. “We know that a small percentage of violent criminals are responsible for a disproportionate amount of crime. By focusing our efforts on these individuals, we are sending a clear message—violence will not be tolerated in our city.”

    These 99 fugitives, who collectively have 616 total arrests for crimes such as Assault on a Public Servant, Manufacture/Delivery of a Controlled Substance, Murder, Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Sexual Abuse of a Child, Reckless Driving, and Stalking, were taken into custody by the Dallas Police Department Fugitive Unit and U.S. Marshals North Texas Fugitive Task Force between June 1–30.

    Of those 99 fugitives, 22 were women and 77 were men. Three had arrests for Illegal Entry into the U.S., and one had an arrest for Alien Inadmissibility - Section 212 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).

    Officials told Fox 4 that officers used "a combination of the city’s camera system and old-fashioned good police work" to make the arrests.

    North Texas Crime Stoppers is offering a guaranteed $1,000 reward for tips submitted to the crime stoppers tipline that lead to the arrest of any individual with an existing felony warrant for specific crimes, until August 31.
