Music and Mingling – Thursday, June 2
ARATOGA SPRINGS — The silent action is coming to a close but the dance floor has only begun to smolder under the musical direction of Grand Central Station at Music and Mingling, the gala that kicks off the fundraising season, at the Whitney Polo Fields in Saratoga Springs. The Thursday, June 2 event is the sixth annual fundraiser for the Adult and Senior Center of Saratoga.
Since 1955, the mission of The Center has been to empower seniors to achieve and maintain personal independence and individual well being by providing the program structure and support services necessary for healthy recreation, companionship, social involvement, and problem solving. From the polo experience sponsored by Saratoga Saddlery, the finest cigars from James and Sons Tobacconists on Broadway, an amazing silent auction, a hat display worthy of an award from Saratoga Trunk, to the art of sabrage (removing a champagne cork with a sword), this event showcased the best of everything that Saratoga has to offer. With attendance between 400-450, the community has spoken and they have said loud and clear that they support the Adult and Senior Center of Saratoga. Special thanks goes to 15 Church for hosting the official after party and donating 15 percent of all sales on the patio to The Adult and Senior Center. - Alice Corey Alice Corey is the owner of: Alice Corey Photography, a professional photography business, as well as the blogging bar, which provides digital marketing for local businesses.
