If you missed Cygnet’s Sundown Safari this year you missed a great party.  The zoo is such a beautiful place to spend a spring evening and our decorators (all volunteers headed by Doreen Black) did a terrific job of surrounding us with the colors and feel of a Saharan Sunset.

The event is a fundraiser so there were many terrific auction items, both silent and live, but the best part was the people.  Sean and Bill had a chance to speak with almost everyone, I think.  And other Cygnet Artists were there to sing and perform and engage with our guests. When I wasn’t running around like an ‘event coordinator’ I got to spend time speaking with our donors and patrons, both new and old.  For me, that’s the best part.  I met new people and had a chance to ‘catch up’ with long time friends of Cygnet.

We’ve had rave reviews about the food, the music, the entertainment, the animals, the dancing, the auction and what a great time the whole evening turned out to be.  A very special thanks to our event chair, Tim Mulligan and the many volunteers who made the whole thing happen.  Oh….did I say we raised over $50,000?

You won’t want to miss it next year!

We’ll announce the date as soon as it’s scheduled.
