If there's one thing we'd like to see flown off the radar, it's breast cancer. If we could pick another thing, we'd add sub-par health insurance. The special event Fly Away With The Bridge doesn't eradicate those things, but it puts wings under them in a more uplifting way: raising funds and awareness for cancer victims without adequate coverage, with silent and live auctions, dancing, refreshments and more. Fly Away With The Bridge takes place from 7 to 11 p.m. Saturday at Million Air Dallas, 4300 Westgrove Road in Addison. Tickets are $125. Call 214-821-3820 or visit BridgeBreast.org.
