The Baker Family & Dusk

during Gilda’s Ride for Cancer Awareness in 2006.

The opportunity to have our annual summer cocktail party at Dusk came to us because of family ties.  In this case the connection is between founding Board Member and former Board Chair, Anne Baker and her son, Tim, who is the catering manager at this very popular nightclub located in Caesars Atlantic City.

When Tim first called with the idea, he said he wanted to do an event to benefit Gilda’s Club South Jersey because he knew of his Mom’s dedication to the organization and he wanted to do her proud.  Another example of -- The whole family, the whole time. 

Event fundraising can have its funny moments.  For example, we didn’t realize that our friends would read “Gilda’s Night Out at Dusk” as “Girl’s Night Out at Dusk.”  Let’s set the record straight:  Men are very welcome too.  And people over 30 will feel comfortable as the lights will be on and the music will soft.

 

We have events because they are fun, but also we need the dollars to keep the red door open and the program at no charge to members.  Tickets are $60/person or $100/couple and because Dusk is considering us family the vast majority of that ticket price will come back to Gilda’s Club South Jersey.

This is music to our ears.  Soft music.

Please buy your tickets today.
