“A Night at the Apollo” - LongRun’s Third Annual Fundraising Gala
Horse Lovers and Motown fans unite for the third annual LongRun Thoroughbred Retirement Society’s Fundraising Gala on Friday, September 28, 2007 under the corporate tent at Woodbine Racetrack.
This year’s theme, “A Night at The Apollo”, will feature the entertainment of Hollywood Heaven with a tribute to Motown.
The Gala has been a sell- out event the past two years and this year’s event should be no different with plans for a smashing party, live music and dancing, a plated gourmet dinner and open bar.
Door prizes and terrific live & silent auction items will also be up for grabs with all proceeds to benefit our ex-thoroughbred race horses through the work of LongRun Thoroughbred Retirement Society.
LongRun’s Gala provides the horse community with a chance to dress up and let down it’s hair with a touch of flare and glamour.
Tickets are on sale now at $250 each or $2000 for a table of eight. Don’t miss out, tickets sell out fast!
To purchase tickets or more information call LongRun ar 416-675-3993, ext. 3440 or visit their website at www.longrunretirement.com.
