Roaring 20’s Fundraiser to Benefit Gwinnett Seniors

By on July 25, 2009

Come and enjoy a night at the speak-easy where you will enjoy jazz and ragtime music, swanky hors d’oeuvres, giggle water refreshments, and auction items for the finicky flappers. All proceeds will benefit the Gwinnett County seniors.

This spectacular event is the seventh annual silent auction hosted by The Friends of Gwinnett County Senior Services (Friends). It will be held at Delmar Gardens of Gwinnett on Thursday, July 30 from 6:00pm to 8:30pm. Delmar Gardens is located at 3100 Club Drive in Lawrenceville.

Friends is a private volunteer governed nonprofit organization. The organization’s fundraising efforts have resulted in emergency assistance, home repair, food baskets, dental, medical health and wellness screenings to benefit the senior citizens of Gwinnett. Friends has also met budget shortfalls by supporting 133,825 meals and nutritional dietary supplement drinks for the older population.

The theme for this year’s auction is the “Roaring 20’s” and will feature items and services donated by local businesses and individuals along with big-ticket items such as roundtrip airline tickets, weekend get-a-ways, Braves Baseball tickets and apparel.

Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door. Ticket price includes admittance to the event, entertainment, food and beverages, a door prize ticket and participation in the silent and live auction.

For more information or to purchase advance tickets, please contact Celia Moore at 770.822.8775 or celia.moore@gwinnettcounty.com
