Gala leadership was spearheaded by chairs Cindy and Gary Greenberg and Gail and Gary Swartz, honorary chairs Rhona and Bruce Caress, and auction chair Bonnie Winograd.

As is tradition, the evening saluted community leaders who have been specially committed to the success of Seven Acres. Vicky and Michael Richker received the Joyce Proler Schechter Spirit of Life Award.

It was an unforgettable introduction of the honorees, handled by Schechter herself, Vicky Richker’s daughter Elizabeth Warren and Michael Richker’s son Jonathan Richker. As the couple accepted the award, Jonathan Richker sang Everything’s Coming Up Roses, making a little twist on the lyrics to include Seven Acres.
