I can now cross “attend a gala” off my list of things to do! (ok, so it wasn’t actually on there but it should have been!!)
As I mentioned in a previous blog, this was my first year on the American Diabetes Association Gala committee. I joined the committee because my good friend Jen Miller was on the committe AND because Linda Crider (who I’d worked with when I volunteered for the Relay for Life) now works for the ADA and was in charge of the Gala. These are two women I admire and love working with.
The event was Saturday evening at the Hyatt Crown Center. There was music, auctions and dancing. The black lab I helped foster raised $1200 and I won (silent auction) tickets to the roller derby!! My friend Terri went with me and we sat at a table with some great couples. It was a great night and I can’t wait for next years event!
Here are a few pics from the night:
