An Evening at the Palace, UCP's 16th Annual Gala
UCP of Central Florida, Emmy-nominated actress Cheryl Hines and our Honorary Host Committee invite you to join us for An Evening at the Palace on March 14, 2009 from 5:30 - 10 p.m. where we will celebrate the accomplishments of children with all types of special needs.
Held at the Buena Vista Palace Hotel & Spa, more than 700 guests, including many of Central Florida's top community and business leaders, will enjoy a fabulous four-course gourmet meal with unique wine pairings. Guests will also be enticed by incredible auction items and enjoy the vocal performance of Jennifer Holliday. In addition, UCP will present the Orlando Magic with the Jack Holloway Star of Gratitude Award fand Carolyn Lord with the Jackie Bailes Legacy Award.
Much of our production costs and auction items are donated, so most of the funds raised goes toward helping our children and families receive the best services possible. It's through this event that we're able to provide our music therapy program, a second teacher assistant in each classroom and therapy sessions for children from financially challenged families. Funds also help purchase supplies and equipment in our classrooms and therapy gyms.
Dress is black-tie optional. To reserve your seat today, simply click here. In addition, you can preview a list of silent and live auction packages that will be up for bid. UCP has also secured a special room rate of $99 a night at the Buena Vista Palace for our guests. Click here to reserve your room.
So, plan now to join us for An Evening at the Palace. It's sure to be a memorable time.
