Gala 2012: The Great Catsby
Saturday, May 19, 2012

This year’s gala will be the ‘cats pajamas’ as we relive the roaring twenties at “The Great Catsby” on May 19 at the Sonnenberg Gardens and Mansion in Canandaigua. Stroll the gardens, play a game of croquet, indulge in some bathtub gin, wear your flapper dress, and dance the night away! An entertainment troupe will provide period-style entertainment to transport you back to the 20’s and you will be feeling Hotsy Totsy as you enjoy the glamour and nightlife. Peruse the silent and live auctions, with all proceeds benefitting animals in need at Lollypop Farm.
