for Dade Heritage Trust Fundraiser
at Indian Creek Country Club


Guests at Dade Heritage Trust’s 2008 Annual Golf Tournament and Fabulous Cocktail Auction fundraiser were treated to a perfect day of golf and a glorious sunset over the water at Indian Creek Country Club on SaturdayMay 3rd.

Thanks to premier sponsors TotalBank and Adrienne Arsht, golf foursomes enjoyed a luncheon and afternoon playing the legendary greens.  For the evening cocktail buffet that followed, sponsored by Bill Ussery Motors Companies, guests reveled in the beautiful 1928 historic architecture, enjoying the music of the Billington Trio, a silent and live auction and an idyllic setting for conversation and laughter.

Mary Young and Amy Sussman co-chaired the fundraiser, with Jose Goyanes and Chico Goldsmith co-chairing the2 golf tournament.  Funds raised will support the nonprofit Dade Heritage Trust’s efforts to save Miami’s endangered historic places.
