Gibson Mansion Fundraiser for Starpoint a Success
The Starpoint – Gibson Mansion Fundraising Weekend of April 26-27 was deemed a success in many ways. Mr. Brendan Pardue graciously opened his personal residence at 907 Greenwood with all proceeds from the weekend designated for Starpoint. The Friday Night Wine Tasting was attended by 135 invited guests who sampled wine from the Abbey Winery and hors d’oeuvres from Aspen Leaf Bakery in Florence, toured all rooms of the Mansion courtesy of Fremont Civic Theater actors and guides, and were entertained by harpist, Kristen Truan. On Saturday the home was opened to the public for historical tours and more than 350 enjoyed guided tours again by Fremont Civic Theater actors and guides, were entertained by Jim Bosse on classical guitar, witnessed and participated in Victorian dances, toured the Greenwood neighborhood in horse drawn carriage rides by the Budd’s from Florence and viewed a Silver Shadow Rolls Royce in the driveway.
The first ever Gibson Weekend grossed more than $9,000 for Starpoint.
Thank you Starpoint “Stars”- Brendan Pardue, Mountain Peaks Urology, Loaf ‘N Jug Holy Cross Abbey Winery, Touch of Love, Budd’s Carriage Rides, Fremont Civic Theater actors, guides and Victorian dancers, and Dr. Jim Bossee (classical guitar) and
all of the community supporters!
