Good Morning. It’s Wednesday, October 24, 2007, the morning after our gala event – the first annual Cynopsis Foundation Charity Dinner & Auction, and if you weren’t there, well, you missed a heckuva time. It was an evening of festivity and beautifully dressed people An evening of friends enjoying friends An evening of celebrating our children and their future educations An evening of thinking just a little bit harder about our oceans and what it produces An evening of enthusiastic bidding – where half the fun was continuing the rapid fire jumps in the bid, just to see how far the room would go An evening of cases … not cans! All in all, it was extraordinary, lively and full of some very funny moments. A particular highlight of the day … Joe Torre coming into Chelsea Pier Sixty around midday for a meeting – I stopped him, asked him to sign a baseball, he agreed, and we put it in the Silent Auction … lucky winner! And what seemed to be a highlight for some … to see what I look like. Ha! Too bad if you didn’t make it. Maybe next year! Here are a few quotes overheard by the Cynopsis staff during the course of the evening —
Total auction tally for the evening – $22,225! Not bad for the first annual! Congratulations and thanks to all who contributed, who supported, bought tickets, bid until it hurt, and came out for this first annual event. If you weren’t there last night, perhaps next year!
