The Grand Blanc dealership was transformed into a lavish venue for one of three major fundraisers benefitting Whaley Children’s Center. The signature theme invited nearly 400 attendees to dress in tuxes, gowns and swanky sneakers to enjoy a cocktail hour, dinner and live music by Bluewater Kings Band. This year’s funds raised by silent and live auctions will help improve the outdoor spaces at Whaley, a nationally accredited facility providing residential and clinical programs for children who have suffered from abuse and neglect. NBC25 News Anchor Stephanie Parkinson served as host.
