Special Events
Here at the Center, we place great importance on celebrations and having fun! So we always find a reason for a party, bake sale, fundraiser or special celebration. For in-house events, members and staff alike do an out-of-this-world splendid job of transforming our main hall in to a glittering, in-theme venue. Our annual gala, an off-site major fundraiser for the Center, is always fabulously city-themed and well attended by supporters and friends from the community.
