GALA 2010 is Huge Success!
The JCC's biggest night of the year - the annual JCC Gala on March 6 - was a huge success!
Gala is the JCC's most visible and spectacular fundraising event that helps fund essential JCC services, while providing an
enjoyable evening of entertainment and socializing to attendees of all backgrounds. As the JCC's most popular fundraising event,
Gala makes a huge difference in the lives of more than 150,000 people every year. Even more so in this difficult financial time, the
JCC needs community support to help provide critical programs to those who otherwise may not be able to afford it.
"When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool - that's amore!"
– Dean Martin, That's Amore
Guests wore their best "Vintage Las Vegas" threads, in keeping with the event's theme, and enjoyed an elegant
evening of fine music, glitzy entertainment and glamorous fun!
"Love was just a glance away, A warm embracing dance away."
– Frank Sinatra, Strangers in the Night
"Who knows what the faiths have in store, from their vast mysterious sky?"
– Sammy Davis Jr., Something's Gotta Give
- Relaxing with friends and networking with colleagues, guests found that Gala 2010 was a great opportunity to
show their American classic cool and become acquainted with new and old friends.
