In full Saturday Night fever form, Mr. Molak oversaw the Live Auction imaginatively curated by Kristi Patterson, Carolyn Putney and Jennifer Youstra. Julie Dickerson and Linda Thomas’ creative composition of cakes received a rousing response, including a never-before-offered 60th Anniversary cake! Live auction highlights included a Dream Race Weekend with Mario Andretti, an ultimate luxury experience in the Big Apple with tickets to see Jimmy Fallon and the Roots, a culinary tour of Paris including cooking classes at Le Cordon Bleu, an extreme V.I.P. weekend with Coach Moseley to see the LA Lakers and an action packed day at Universal Studios and ... of course, Father Martin’s handcrafted, heirloom quality
Tall Clock–number 34 in a limited edition series.
With the final paddle counted, guests made a mad dash to the disco dance floor to claim their spot and rock the night away! Jam packed and roaring until the very last beat of the
very last song, Club 60 will be the measure for galas to come.
