It's Lucky Number 13 for the Ottawa Sports Dinner: Marino Headlines and Klein Quarterbacks

April 28, 2010 - MB's captain has been called up to the majors - of celebrity sports dinners that is. Yes, MB's CEO and Creative Director Steve Klein will be running the plays as Executive Producer for the 13th Annual Ottawa Celebrity Sports Dinner and he'll be joined by one of the biggest names in sports history: Hall of Famer and former Miami Dolphins quarterback, Dan Marino!

Taking place on Monday, October 25th, Marino will headline this all-star roster. The Ottawa Sports Dinner is a huge production. The offence will cover the entire field (a.k.a. The Hampton Inn Ottawa and Conference Centre. No doubt, Klein will have his hands full, but rest assured TSN and CTV sports fans, he's got the experience to get the job done.

Celebrity host Rod Black will be returning for his third consecutive year with the event. Last year, over $230,000 was raised for the Soloway Jewish Community Centre, which provides the Ottawa community a full spectrum of educational, social, recreational and cultural programs and services. This year, the dinner has two beneficiaries: the Soloway Jewish Community Center and the Queensway-Carleton Hospital Foundation. The goal for 2010 is to score even bigger numbers for these worthy causes.

Klein couldn't be more excited about this year's lineup and is thrilled to playing the position of Executive Producer: "It's a privilege to be given such a responsibility and we're going to set Ottawa on its heels this year with massive star power." When pressed about what's hidden in this year's playbook, Klein wouldn't give up any other marquee names. "You'll just have to show up on game day to find out."
