Parties promote children's Causes

Social STAIRsteps were the order of a festive evening when numbers counted as much as letters. Start the Adventure in Reading marked its 25th anniversary with a cocktail party and auction under the title,daytona rolex women replica, "STAIR Affair." William M. Prieur, Brandy Whisnant, and Jonathan Willams chaired the celebration that hailed Louellen and Darryl Berger, and Denise and George Shinn as the honorary co chairmen. The hosting trio were Anne (Mrs. George R.) Montgomery and her daughter and son in law, Anne and Bill Grace, whose daughter Ransdell is married to the above William Prieur. To tie it all together, the event occurred on the 25th of the party month, and the Montgomery Grace home (the historic Morris Downman House), where the festivity was booked, has 2525 as the numerals in its address. Making the scene, too, was future reader, little Anne Cameron Prieur, baby daughter of William and Ransdell.

Nearly 300 of STAIR longtime supporters, tutors and volunteers circulated at the bash, beckoned by the invitation that was inspired by Alex Beard children book,fake rolex daytona collection, "The Jungle Grapevine." The decorations furthered that theme. Items with a children literature twist figured in the silent auction, which also included sports related enticements, vacation stays and gift certificates. Eight fine restaurants generously catered, Frank Stansbury and Tracy Blair lined up the beverages, and, as led by Wilbert Rawlins, the O. Perry Walker Jazz Ensemble made merry music.

In addition to the Bergers and the Shinns, the party pack included Patty Hoppe,rolex daytona men fake, the representative for title sponsor Entergy Charitable Foundation; Phyllis Taylor; the Prieurs; STAIR board president Bridget Carter; prez elect Jim Howell, who donated his photography services, and Diamon; Ben and Allison Berger Tiller and her brothers, Brandon and Darryl Berger Jr.; Brandy Whisnant, who supplied the auction with a pearl necklace from her company, Wellington Company Fine Jewelry; Jonathan Williams, Tubman Elementary School principal, with wife Pamela; Norm and Betty Sullivan, who did the cutouts of the Beard "animals"; and auction trio Sherri O Tara Luparello and Lara Jensen.
