Quite grand indeed

So, last week I experienced the Grand Summer Night at UConn. That's right, it's quite grand. It's the event the Friends of Stamford Downtown put together as their annual public art fundraiser. It was aflutter with an indulgent silent auction, tasty hor d'oeuvres, spirits and friendly chatter. After Mayor Malloy thanked the organizers and attendees, and administered an exciting flat screen tv raffle, the participants were invited to dine at one of the Downtown restaurants of their choice. How exciting--this was my opportunity to try a new place. Everyone I spoke to had a fabulous dining experience: It was a huge success, and great fundraiser. Kudos to all those that supported the cause. I can't wait for the next "grand" event...
