FOUNDATION Legendary Party Chairman Sally Dorsey created a three-venue party that took revelers back in time to Prohibition, when late-night fun meant going to secretive speakeasies whose rough facades hid elegant cabarets and basement nightclubs. Excited guests turned the corner in the main hallway of the Ritz- Carlton, Buckhead and entered Lizzie’s Flower Shop. Gone were the familiar registration tables and podiums, and instead, The Legendary Party guests found themselves surrounded by buckets of white and purple flowers, a cash register and an imposing bouncer, Big Louie, who was asking, “What’s the password?” “Capone,” the party-goers replied as they presented their “keys” to enter “Speakeasy, Legend of the Jazz Age,” Shepherd Center Auxiliary's annual Legendary Party held Nov. 1. Legendary Party Chairman Sally Dorsey created a three-venue party that took revelers back in time to Prohibition, when late-night fun meant going to secretive speakeasies whose rough facades hid elegant cabarets and basement nightclubs. The first stop was Harold’s Joint, a combination bookie joint and pool parlor where guests played poker, watched Texas Tech beat Texas on a big screen TV and shot pool. The main event was in the grand ballroom, which featured Doc Scantlin’s Imperial Palms Orchestra, an amazing 1920s-style, 23-piece band complete with showgirls who sang, danced and entertained the crowd until midnight. Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner of a deconstructed ceasar salad, a huge tenderloin steak and a delicious dessert of coconut cake, a Ritz-Carlton “moon pie” and a white chocolate martini. Afterwards, Legendary Party guests joined Junior Ball guests at The Stork Club, a recreation of the famed 1930s New York speakeasy and nightclub, for dancing to Atlanta Beat. A midnight buffet of sliders and fries, omelets and grits, and Krispy Kreme doughnuts helped fuel the party atmosphere. Advisory Board member Elizabeth Allen was the honorary chairman of the event, and Sally recognized Elizabeth for her years of service to Shepherd Center and her compassion for the hospital’s patients and families. This year’s ball raised $812,273 in gross revenue for Shepherd Center Foundation’s Campus Renovation Fund. The proceeds will be used to renew and refresh the Center’s original Shepherd Building and complete the fifth floor of the Jane Woodruff Pavilion. Chairman-elect Cyndae Arrendale is already gathering ideas for the 2009 gala. For information about the event or to help plan it, email Cara Puckett at cara_puckett@shepherd.org or call 404-350-7778. — Dean Melcher Left : Shepherd Center co-founder Alana Shepherd, entertainers Doc Scantlin and Chou Chou, and Legendary 2008 Chairman Sally Dorsey Below, from left to right: Cindy Voyles, Victoria Farrington and Kay Quigley; Jack Sawyer, Legendary honoree Elizabeth Allen and Bill Torres; Sally Dorsey, Elizabeth Allen and Legendary Party Chairman-elect Cyndae Arrendale.
