Story
Get to Know Us
Basking Babes creates a luxury picnic experience for guests using beautiful tablescapes with our fresh linen, and an overall polished experience. We want to create a beautiful ambience, stress free for our guests to create a sense of zen. We do this by doing 100% of the picnic set up and tear down. With there being serious dialogue on mental health and wellness we find it important to take time out of your schedule to focus on yourself and spending time with people that bring you that peace and happiness. We think we can provide a unique service that can be enjoyed by folks from all walks of life.
Jason Palmer-Mitchell's scholarship fundraiser
Jason is currently a senior in high school where he participates in Marching and Jazz Band. During his high school years he also took up Golf and Winter Percussion. ​ Jason enjoys volunteering at the Wheeler Mission and working and his local community center. ​ His future goal is to attend a university to study mathematics or finance to eventually graduate with at least a bachelor's degree. It is his hope that this will allow him to find a career and opportunities to not just create a stable life for himself but to educate others on financial literacy. ​
The 100 Black Men of Indianapolis, Inc. has selected Jason as one of the outstanding men to participate in the Thirty-Seventh Annual Beautillion Militaire. The Beautillion Scholarship Event will be held on April 15, 2023.
The Beautillion recognizes the achievements of African American males from Indianapolis area high schools. All participants attend weekly educational workshop sessions prior to the final event. Sessions cover topics from personal responsibility, finance, cultural issues, and respect for others, to community service, health issues, communication, and college expectations. The men of the 100 and other volunteers provided mentorship to assist Beaus with defining future goals.
Beautillion participants are also partially responsible for obtaining patron support for the Scholarship Fund. All net proceeds are directed towards scholarships and book awards which are distributed to the Beaus. Each Beau receives either a scholarship or book award which can be used at the college, or other institution of higher learning, of his choice.
We hope that we can count on your support. We welcome any contribution that you can make. To be published in the souvenir book, please submit your contribution with the enclosed order form before Sunday, February 12, 2023
Thank you!
