On May 12th, more than 500 guests enjoyed “An Evening with Lucie Arnaz” at Child Saving Institute’s 20th annual Cabaret for at-risk kids, held at the Ramada Plaza Omaha. The red and black room was decorated like a jazz club with top hats and baby grands on the tables—all to set the mood for the noted songstress. Cabaret 2012 raised over $300,000 for the children, youth and families served in CSI programs and warm and witty Lucie Arnaz brought the crowd MAHA to its feet at the conclusion of her hour-long set.
