The 2018 Soroptimists' Garden Party at Sunnyside Gardens took place on Friday May 11. The evening included a presentation by Sunnyside's Ned Chapman, flavorful wines and snacks, raffles and a wine pull, and music by Phil Drum. Sunnyside Gardens donated 10% of the evening's sales to SISC. The wonderful pictures in this gallery were taken by Brian Hoffman. Thank you to all who made this event so successful!
