indy Obron Kahn's enthusiasm
is contagious when she talks
about the upcoming Crush
Birmingham Wine and Food Classic
on Sept. 27 at the Townsend Hotel, an
inaugural event benefiting the Children's
Leukemia Foundation of Michigan

festivals that happen in other communi-
ties such as Naples or Aspen, but we are
bringing it to Metro Detroit,' says Obron

dation and one of its founders, Sylvia

of the Heart" dinner honoring Sylvia
Brown. Obrong Kahn also serves as an

Obron Kahn said. "I like their hands-on,
practical approach to solving life's daily
problems."
Obron Kahn is a Bloomfield Hills
resident and a Realtor by profession.
She serves as a CLF board officer. Crush
Birmingham, she said, "is all about a
celebration of pairing extraordinary
wine with the finest cuisine' She points
