An Evening With Robert Irvine
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 26, 2012) — Eat right. Spend right. Live right. Robert Irvine will be speaking on his experiences with healthy living and developing shows for the Food Network at 7 p.m. on Wed., Oct. 3, in Memorial Hall. This is a free event sponsored by the Student Activities Board Engaging Issues Committee.
