VERO BEACH — Make plans now to attend the much anticipated Girls Night Out, a special evening of boutique shopping to benefit Hibiscus Children’s Center.
Mark your calendar for Wednesday, November 14, to join your friends at the Sun Jet Center Hangar at the Vero Beach Airport from 6-9 p.m.
At eight o’clock in the morning, four large corporate jets are wheeled out of the Sun Jet Hangar. By six o’clock in the evening, a ladies’ bazaar has been created complete with 45 vendors, wine bars, food tastings, and a deejay spinning a contemporary beat. It is a sight to behold.
Carole Casey, Sue Sharpe, and Linda Teetz are co-chairing Girls Night Out. They combine their considerable talent with Andi Beck and Roni Fuster to again make this year’s Girls Night Out bigger and better than last year’s.
“This is an evening that brings together women who enjoy mingling with friends and sipping wine, while shopping unique boutiques and tasting incredible food,” said Sue Sharpe.
Tickets are $25 ($30 at the door), which include admission, wine, and hors d’oeuvres prepared by local restaurants.
Shoppers will receive a complimentary tote bag filled with merchant coupons and offers.
Due to the popularity of this event, tickets are expected to sell out fast. Tickets are available by calling Carole Casey at (772) 564-0121 or Linda Teetz at (772) 492-1662, or by emailing www.GNOTickets@aol.com.
Hibiscus Children’s Center, founded in 1985 by LaVaughn Tilton, is a non-profit organization serving Martin, Indian River, Okeechobee, and St. Lucie counties.
It operates a shelter in Jensen Beach and a village of group homes in Vero Beach.
Hibiscus addresses the problem of abuse and neglect of children throughout the Treasure Coast with an expanded foster care program, mental health and substance abuse services, a prevention program to support families in crisis, and services to reduce the number of families entering the dependency court system.
Hibiscus Children’s Center Thrift Store in Jensen Beach was opened in 1997. All proceeds from the thrift store are used to offset costs for children’s programs.
Shelter and foster programs are funded in part by United for Families and an additional $2.5 million must be raised each year by Hibiscus through fundraising and local grants to meet children’s overall needs.
Hibiscus speakers are available to present to your group or organization.
