The Mash House Restaurant & Brewery Hosted Muscular Dystrophy Association Lock-Up Event

Raleigh, NC, May 30, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Dean Ogan, owner of Rocky Top Hospitality, has announced that The Mash House Restaurant & Brewery hosted the annual Muscular Dystrophy Association Lock-Up event on May 13. The Mash House closed for business and donated the facility to the local charity and provided food for all participants. There were 187 people in attendance and the event raised a total of $90,000. This nation-wide event consists of local business and community leaders who agree to be "arrested" to raise money for Jerry's kids.

The Muscular Dystrophy Association is a voluntary health agency, a dedicated partnership between scientists and concerned citizens aimed at conquering neuromuscular diseases that affect more than a million Americans.

“It was very exciting for the Mash House to serve as the jail for this important event,” said Ogan. “It was a wonderful opportunity to get the community involved in such an important organization and our local community was incredibly impressive in showing their support, by raising nearly $100,000.”
