CAPTAIN -- 40 Year Anniversary Gala

You may want to refer back to the May 23rd post.   The Gala was incredible!  This link takes you to an article about CAPTAIN and the Gala.
The Fairways of Halfmoon Golf Club was the perfect venue for the Gala and the elegant array of hot and cold hors d'oeuvres, fruits, and desserts, cash bar with approximately 350 CAPTAIN supporters made for a big, happy party.   When the formal program began, Executive Director, Sue Catroppa asked me to stand -- the first and primary founder of CAPTAIN!  Everyone applauded.  The founders were asked to make the first cake cut.  I felt honored.   

Me and Donna Rudzinski.  Donna and her husband were in a
horrible automobile accident and therefore I was alone to lead the
development of the program. I missed having her by my side.
It was so good to see her!
