Desserts included Swiss Chocolate Cake with Caramel Crunch, Sansrival.
The Pre-Kindergarten and Grade 10 scholars entertained everyone with their Maskarra dance presentations.
The main event of the night was the silent auction with more than 400 donated items ranging from gift certificates (hotels, salon, spas and restaurants) to food, kitchen wares, shoes, toys, locally crafted and imported bags, paintings, home decors, etc.
Proceeds of this event will go to the Scholarship program of Tapulanga Foundation.
