Circuit has been a huge supporter
and donor for the Center on Halsted. A new multi-million dollar
Community Center located conveniently across the street from
the club.
Circuit has donated space to
Power Construction, the contractor who is building the Community
Center, which should be complete sometime in the summer/fall
of 2007. For almost two years Power Construction has made their
home in the north space of the club. After Power is finished
with construction on the Center, the space at Circuit will be
developed into a casual dining restaurant to compliment the club.
Circuit recently hosted a tag
night to help raise funds for the Center and brought in Kevin
Aviance to perform.
Circuit has hosted many fundraisers
for the Center on Halsted. For several years now leading up
to the opening of the Center, the annual Oscars benefit has been
held at Circuit, including the 2007 Oscars event on Feb. 25th.
Circuit will host a Furniture
Shower for the Center on Tuesday, April 10, 2007 from 5-10pm.
What's a furniture shower? Just like a baby shower. Or a bridal
shower. You will be able to view a list of requests and make
a donation to buy the furniture needed.
Circuit's commitment to the community
doesn't stop there. To see the many more organizations that
