Breaking with the tradition of holding its Ambassadors holiday party in a tented pavilion on the grounds of a swank private home, Texas Children’s Hospital moved its glittery soirée to Radom Capital’s Montrose Collective. For the season, the development’s paseo was awash in holiday decor making it an ideal backdrop for the celebratory evening.
Holly and Steve Radom, managing principal of Radom Capital, chaired the event that engaged more than 300 members of the generous donor group that supports various programs at Texas Children’s Hospital.
Beyond the expected holiday-infused schmoozing, the jolly throng partied across a grazing field of food offerings from the Montrose Collective‘s resident restaurants. On the menu were signature dishes from Graffiti Raw, Japanese delights from Uchi, bites straight from Italy from Marmo, and a bright touch of greens and veggies from Picnik. Top-of-the-line wine selections flowed from Fiora’s Bottle Shop while Van Leeuwen’s decadent ice cream provided the ultimate sweet treat.
The entertainment was as sweet as the ice cream as Spinphony, a Denver based quartet of electric violinists, expanded its ranks to eight strings making for exceptional musical backdrop to the festivities.
Speaking on behalf of the hospital was Dr. James Versalovic, pathologist in chief at Texas Children’s Hospital and a Lifetime Ambassador, who announced that the 2024 season will focus on the Child Life department and the Pawsitive Play Program.
Surprise guests representing the latter were veteran Pawsitive pooch Angus and newcomer 2-year-old Crosby, just two of the extensively trained dogs that provide emotional and therapeutic support for hospitalized children and their families.
