What could be better than having 120 people in a room who share your vision for the community? A
party to celebrate it!
Sustainable Surplus (SSE) held its
first annual “Gratitude with Attitude” friend raiser to celebrate the support
of its donors, as well as to bring new friends into the fold.
Guests were entertained with live music, food and libations
at the home of interim-chair Diana Shapiro in The Crosby.
The event was sponsored by MckinneyAdvisory Group, Morgan Stanley and Sonya Berg Zen Fashionista.
What made this so fantastic?
Everything had an element of donation for the event. A special call-out to the 12 food and
beverage vendors for their donations:
2Good2Be, Dolce Pane E Vino, El Callejon, Green Dragon Tavern, Kasi Foods, La Jolla Brewing Company, NakedWines.com,Pacific Coast Grill, Panera, Pure Water Technology, Rock 'n' Roll Sushi, and Venom Vodka
Music by the Haskell Collins Band was the perfect ambiance of "oldies but goodies," enhanced by Karen Crawford Flowers and Sinsay Fitography. Guests were given a wine glass engraved by Signature Hand Engraving to remember the event.
A really fun twist was the addition of a psychic, Jerry Hoskey and numerologist Ariela - to entertain and engage attendees in their future! (Hopefully, with SSE in the picture!)
SSE raised $3000 at its silent auction. Some choice items were tickets for the San
Diego Film Festival; game tickets for the SD Chargers and Padres; and a driver
golf club from TaylorMade Golf.
Here are a few special photos from a fun-filled evening of gratitude and and new friends:
