The inaugural Champaign-Urbana Gentleman’s Expo (also known as CUGenEx) was in full swing on Wednesday evening. Both local and regional vendors were on hand to promote their businesses to all who entered the City Center, 503 S Chestnut, Champaign, IL. The two day event, envisioned and initiated by Jeff Grider of J. Hilburn Custom Men’s Wear in conjunction with Green Street Realty, showcases top-of-the-line goods and services designed with the male consumer in mind. The expo wraps up on Thursday, May 28th (today!), at 7 p.m. For additional information and a list of exhibitors, visit www.cugenex.com. Stop by. Bring a friend. Be a man. Strike that… be a gentleman.
