During the first quarter of each year, The Anchorettes, the women’s auxiliary to the Gulf Harbors Yacht Club, host an Annual Fashion Show with a portion of the proceeds going to a selected local charity.
The Anchorettes select a theme, plan the menu, design the program, decorate the tables and stage. A local clothier provides the fashions, and our ladies line up to be “models for the day.”
There is a large array of door prizes, raffle items, and a silent auction as well as a delicious lunch with lots of hugs and laughter. The fact that the Anchorettes present a large donation to a local charity makes this day truly memorable.
Gulf Harbors Yacht Club had their annual Anchorettes Fashion Show and Charity Event on May 3, 2023.
The theme and decorations were nautical, and the Fashion Show was so much fun. Chef Dave was at his usual best with his luncheon and dessert offerings.
- It was a fabulous day with lots of raffle baskets to purchase tickets for as well as many items on the Silent Auction tables.
- There was a lotto tree
- And of course, 50/50.
- The highlight of the event was the presentation of a check in the amount of $2,500 for Pasco Kids First.
Maria Hixson, Director of Development with Pasco Kids First gave a moving presentation of how Pasco Kids First helps mostly children who are victims of abuse, all too often, sexual abuse. Our donation made just a small dent in all the good work this worthy charity performs at no charge to their precious “clients”.
