Annual Gala Swings Sinatra-style

What a fabulous party!  Our annual Gala themed Come Fly With Me, was held on Saturday, November 2, 2013 at Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont, Illinois.

The event was a great success and more than 275 guests gathered for an elegant evening that celebrated and supported our students and school.   Live Sinatra-style music was performed by Peter Oprisko. 

The club was beautifully decorated in a style reminiscent of Sinatra and the Rat Pack, and guests had a great time  bidding on a large selection of auction items that included vacations, fine wines, the latest electronics and impossible-to-get tickets.

The EAGLE Award for outstanding volunteerism was presented to UPS - Chicago Consolidation Hub. UPS supported Soaring Eagle with grants and hundreds of volunteer hours over the last year.  The executives accepting the award on behalf of UPS that evening were Gregg Glotzbach and Charlie Blum.

Thank you to our families, staff and Board for all their hard work and for making this such a wonderful event!
