A Blast from the Past! 40th Annual Boys & Girls Club Benefit Auction Thriller-A Flashback to the 80’s

by Stephanie Struyck Elgin

It was the social event of the season as guests went back in time to the 80’s at the popular 40th Annual Boys & Girls Club Benefit Auction Thriller-A Flashback to the 80’s.  Reena and Tony Newhall returned as chairs of the event.  
Hundreds came dressed for the occasion.  From leg warmers, to big hair, neon, shoulder pads and more, guests arrived all decked out to help raise funds for the Boys & Girls Club and the 2,5000 local kids they serve.  Willy Arroyo and Ingrid Blanco entertained the crowd with a ballroom dance while guests enjoyed dinner and dancing.  Over 400 items were available for the live and silent auctions, surpassing their goal and raising $250,000 net, all to benefit the Boys & Girls Club.
