INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — The Indian River Land Trust will celebrate 25 years of conservation this year at its annual benefit.

The honorary Chair of the Anniversary Celebration is founding member and Director Emeritus: Toni Robinson. The Event is co-Chaired by Jill Kaneb and Paula H. Knier.
The committee for this year’s event has been hard at work in preparation for the opening event of the season. The decorations committee has been meeting with Monti of Monti’s Flower Market. Monti and her husband have generously supported the Land Trust’s Benefit, giving time and talent to create table arrangements fitting with the theme of the evening.
After enjoying scrumptious hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, guests will raise their glasses honoring Toni Robinson and the Land Trust, followed by a buffet dinner and musical entertainment.
Once the fire pit is lit, guests will be able to toast marshmallows for S’mores and kick up their heels dancing to the sounds of the Sunrise Party Band.
