This is an adults-only event, with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, music and dancing, along with a terrific array of Silent and Live auction items available for bidding. Information about Auction entertainment, theme, ticket pricing et. al. is being finalized, and will be posted HERE soon! Please, take a moment to consider how you can help.
