WEST CHESTER, Ohio – Olympic and world champion gymnast Simone Biles will speak at a fundraiser for the Boys & Girls Club of West Chester/Liberty on Nov. 4.

Biles, a Boys & Girls Club alumna, will attend the fourth annual “Steak and Burger” fundraiser at the Savannah Center, 5533 Chappell Crossing Blvd. in West Chester.

Club kids eat steak while adults eat hamburgers - "a fun way to show our kids how much we appreciate them,” said CEO Bridget Graber.

Cost is $125 per person. Dinner is at 6:30 p.m. with check-in and reception at 5:15 p.m.

Tickets must be purchased in advance at www.bgcwcl.com or call (513) 860-1923.

Biles is a three-time world all-around champion and the 2016 Olympic individual, all-around, vault and floor gold medalist.

A new $6.8 million Boys & Girls Club building is expected to open this fall at 4845 Cincinnati-Dayton Road, across from the West Chester post office.
