Vizcaya residents attend Susan G. Komen fund raiser

Vizcaya residents attend Susan G. Komen fund raiser
Saturday April 26, sponsored by their TGIF Club.

The main ballroom of the Vizcaya clubhouse was filled with 135 residents, friends and relatives this past Saturday evening at 7:30 P.M.—many of them cancer survivors themselves—to raise money for the Susan G. Komen cancer research fund. The evening was hosted by Vizcaya TGIFRustyJack.jpg
residents Event Chairlady Rusty Rosenblatt and TGIF President Jack Prestigiacomo. Mike Jacobs served as MC and auctioneer.

Snacks, sodas and set-ups were provided. DJ’s John and Tina provided dance music. Coffee and cake was served at the conclusion of the evening.

Every one attending had the opportunity to win a door prize with the small red ticket they received when they made their reservation for the event. Most important was the generosity of the residents to purchase raffle tickets and bid on the quality items that
were put up for auction such as framed art and gift certificates.

A total of $3,200 was collected that will go to the charity for this important research.
