friends in rural Iowa are throwing themselves the birthday bash of their dreams, but not everyone in town is celebrating. Doubling as a charity fund=raiser, the get-together in Jesup for pals named Donnie and Marie, of all things, will feature four clothing-challenged waitresses from the national restaurant chain Hooters (search) selling raffle tickets. And their presence has generated a town-wide controversy. Proceeds from the Lions Club-sponsored event, which will be held at an area golf and country club, will first go to a project at the local tennis court. The rest will be donated to the Jesup School system, which plans to earmark the money for lights for its baseball diamond. Some residents say the fund-raiser is sending a terrible message to the community’s kids.
