Organizers invite area residents to find the glamorous movie star within at the fifth annual Starry Night Benefit Dinner for Aurora House on Friday, April 27 at The Plantation Party House in Spencerport. From the red carpet and paparazzi who great you at the door to a buffet and dancing, participants will imagine that they are partying in Hollywood, rubbing elbows with celebraties.
Dance-inspiring jazz musicians Touch of Brass will perform, along with Spencerport High School’s Vocal Jazz led by Alan Jones. A silent auction and balloon pop raffle are also planned. Tickets for the Aurora House Starry Night Benefit Dinner are $40 per person, $75 per couple, and $35 for groups of ten or more. Reservations are required and tickets are available at Fowler’s Wine & Spirits on South Union Street, Spencerport, www.aurorahousewmc.com, or by contacting Ro at 392-9198 or Norma at 352-0581.
Hollywood guests are encouraged to dress as their favorite movie star. A Silent Auction offers gift baskets, wine, restaurant experiences, evening out packages, quilts, and other enticing items. Tickets to the Nora Jones Jazz Fest concert, an escape weekend to Niagara-on-the-Lake, and two Jet Blue tickets to any destination they serve will also be auctioned.
Aurora House opened in September 2009 in the town of Ogden. The two-bed facility provides the “hospice” philosophy of care. Residents are referred to Aurora House by a hospice agency when they are diagnosed to have three months or less to live. Nursing staff and volunteer support is available around the clock, allowing family members some respite while knowing that their loved one is receiving care. Families feel the comforts of home and can assist with care as much or as little as they wish. As a non profit organization, volunteers are the cornerstones of the great work of this mission.
