The Horne & Moon Social turned out to be a grand night filled with dancing, sparkling company, and dazzling Moulin Rouge inspired decorations! This event, coordinated by our very own John & Amanda Horne, as well as Stewart, Sr., Trudy, & Stewart, Jr. Moon of Air & Energy, is a fundraising arm of a donor advised fund of the Manatee Community Foundation to support adult educational scholarships to local schools. These schools include higher education institutions. With the help of our attendees, we were able to raise a substantial amount to go towards adult scholarships!
According to the Herald-Tribune, each guest, dressed in post-prohibition cabaret costumes, was greeted with Champagne by event chairs Amanda Horne, Stewart Moon and Trudy Moon. The decorations alone said it was time to party at the annual Horne and Moon Social. Partygoers enjoyed delicious food by Pier 22, bidding on great silent auction items and can-can dancers from Champagne Creative Group, while many guests filled the dance floor to the sounds of DeLeon Entertainment, Inc. Chairs John Horne and Stewart Moon Jr., who provide plenty of entertainment all on their own, had guests saying Oui, Oui to the live auction items.
You’ll have to read the full article, though, to see the amazing auction items won by attendees.
