We would be honored to have your support to help raise much needed funds for Children s Diagnostic & Treatment Center (CDTC), a local non-profit serving children with special healthcare needs, regardless of their ability to pay. The Waterway Soirée is a unique and memorable event, best described as a high-end yacht hop followed by a waterway cruise. Yachts will line the dock at Bahia Mar Marina, and the yacht hop will feature delicious food from local hot-spots, open bar and of course lots of fun with great company. Each yacht, comprised of up to 20 guests, will vie for a celebrity of their choice to dine with them on board. Following dinner, all will gather for a festive cruise aboard the new Grand Floridian II, where guests will enjoy dessert, dancing, and live entertainment under the stars. We will be touching base with you to see if you have any questions. For more information, please contact Amanda Mitchell, Director of Development for CDTC at 954-728-1019 or AMitchell@browardhealth.org. Thank you for your consideration!
