Friday, September 19, 2008
Please join us for our inaugural gala as the Canine Therapy Corps - the Winners Circle, on Friday, September 19, at the Adler Planetarium.
This year’s cocktail attire benefit, chaired by Elaine Hoffmann and Mayari Pritzker, promises to be a spectacular sellout.
he evening’s festivities get underway at 6:00 P.M. on the Milky Way with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a silent auction, followed by a gourmet dinner at 7:45 P.M in Galileo’s Café. And of course, the opportunity to meet some of our very own Therapy Dogs!
An array of irresistible auction items awaits: a week-long Caribbean cruise, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade private viewing tickets, destination trips, sports, dinners, one-of-a-kind experiences, plus a few surprises. Not to be outdone, the live auction, led by Alyssa Quinlan of Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, will include a private dinner designed and created by Chef Art Smith of famed restaurant, Table 52, a Mirival spa retreat, a private suite box for a day at Arlington Race Track and more.
Guests of the gala and friends of CTC have the opportunity to donate to this year’s Pet Project: the hiring of consulting therapists to increase program effectiveness. Dancing under the stars to the sounds of the Bradley Young Orchestra completes the evening.
