National Hospice Foundation Annual Gala: Founders Ball

Having the opportunity to bid for the Annual Gala of The National Hospice Foundation is a highlight for us. We won the bid again this year and provided the floral decor for the 2010 Founder's Ball.

A day of setting up on Friday, with five staff members on-site was fun and exciting! Bergerons help set the stage for an awesome event with SofiEvents. Among the group of vendors was Doc Scantlin and the Imperial Palms Orchestra and CCR Events. 

We also provided the centerpieces for the Gratitude for Giving Dinner on Wednesday night. Although a busy week at Bergerons, it was so much fun!
