Right Time – Wright Place – Spectacular Party Benefits Alzheimer’s Community Care
Palm Beach Gardens, FL – Casa Caliente, the expansive 12,000 sq ft. BallenIsles home of Marsha and Robert Wright, was the spectacular setting for a gift-gathering party to benefit Alzheimer’s Community Care’s upcoming Palm Beach gala “Hot Latin Rhythms.” Superbly decorated and exquisitely adorned with holiday decorations, the magnificent home received extensive ooh’s and aah’s from the guests who arrived bearing gifts for the upcoming gala’s silent auction. The 2010 Palm Beach Gala is scheduled for Friday, January 15, 2010 at the Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach.
Gala chairs Geri and Frank Morrow welcomed guests and thanked the Wrights for opening their magnificent home to supporters of Alzheimer’s Community Care. They thanked Carrabba’s Italian Grill of North Palm Beach for donating, for the fourth straight year, the evening’s delicious food, ZYR Russian Vodka, Efusion Energy Club and Brio’s restaurant for donating a portion of the wine. They encouraged everyone to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win a luxurious 6 day, 5 night, vacation in a 3-bedroom suite at the ultra exclusive new 5-Star HACIENDA beachfront community, a Starwood property, Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur, Mexico.
In addition to the silent action and raffle, the Morrows reviewed the fabulous items on display for this year’s gala live auction. Guests were able to view the stunning 18kt white gold necklace adorned with approximately 12.0ct total weight of diamonds, compliments of Rosenberg Diamonds & Co. and the perfect compliment to any driveway, the innovative 2010 Smart Car, "Passion" Model compliments of Smart Center Palm Beach. Rounding out the live auction will be a combination trip of four day, three night luxury accommodations at Raffles Beijing with amenities and a four day, three night luxury accommodations at Raffles Grand Hotel d'Angkor, Siem Reap, Cambodia with amenities, compliments of Raffles Hotels & Resorts.
