Marriott overnight raffle winner. The Tri town Auxiliary of UCPN held their first Holiday Dinner Dance on December 6, 2009. The event was held at the Stewart Manor Country Club (SMCC) which was beautifully decorated with seasonal wreaths and Christmas trees. Tri-town Board member Janet Murray designed and put together the centerpieces.

A table was set up at the side of the room to display the raffle baskets. The raffles prizes included An Overnight stay at the Trump International Hotel; An Overnight stay at the Brooklyn Bridge Marriott Hotel; A Weekend for two at the SeaShore Condo Motel in Fire Island with a dinner Gift Certificate to Salvatores Restaurant in Bayshore; accommodations for 4 at Harrah’s Resort and Casino in Atlantic City; Donald Trump Designer ties and cuff links set; a Jewelry Box and $100.00 Gift Certificate for ParkLane Jewelry; Basket of Cheer with Waterford Wine Goblets; Men’s Invicta Watch; Designer Necklace and Earrings; Viking Cooking School Gift Certificate and the Betty Parente Memory Wreath.

See you at our next event on March 21! Once the guests were seated, Lucille Messina, President of the Tri town Auxiliary, made a few opening remarks. Lucille outlined the work of the United Cerebral Palsy of Nassau. She noted that in these perilous economic times many charities are suffering and need the monies made during these fund raising events.

DJ James and Dolores entertained for this event and had everyone up dancing.

Included in the four course dinner price was an open bar serving unlimited beer, wine and soda. The SMCC staff was very attentive and your beverage glass was constantly filled.

Lucille Messina (with microphone) and the Event Chairs welcome all to the Holiday Dinner Dance. Everyone had a wonderful time at this Holiday Dinner Dance and congratulations to the Tri-town Auxiliary for pulling off another great event.

Our next gala ladies event will be the Sugar & Spice Luncheon to be held on March 21, 2010, 12:30 pm - 5:00 pm at Verdi’s of Westbury. Broadway Bound Dance Center of Garden City will be performing. Mark your calendars and call 877-9133 for all the details.
