A P R I L 2 0 1 0 Spring<br />

On April 24th, Spring Benefit <strong>2010</strong><br />

drew the <strong>Benedictine</strong> community to<br />

our “Sophisticated Supper Club” at the<br />

elegant Hyatt Regency Chesapeake<br />

Bay in Cambridge, Maryland. It is<br />

always wonderful to greet old friends<br />

and meet new friends who have<br />

so much in common—our belief in<br />

<strong>Benedictine</strong>’s kids. Approximately 250<br />

people came to enjoy dinner, dancing<br />

and socializing. The special surprise<br />

guest speaker <strong>for</strong> the evening was<br />

Kevin Duckworth, a graduate of the<br />

<strong>Benedictine</strong> <strong>School</strong> and longtime<br />

member of the Open Community and<br />

Vocational Training Programs. Kevin<br />

gave an excellent talk that gave an<br />

inside look at life in the <strong>Benedictine</strong><br />

family and what it means to him. What a<br />

wonderful way to let the world know the<br />

importance of our entire community’s<br />

generosity and devotion. Many thanks<br />

to Hunter and Cecelia Duckworth,<br />

and Val and Margee Lynch, Co-Chairs<br />

of Spring Benefit <strong>2010</strong>, and to all the<br />

regional and committee members <strong>for</strong><br />

putting together another memorable<br />

gala event.<br />

and Susan Young, Anne Arundel;<br />

Eugene and Mary Ruth Higgs, DE/PA<br />

and Eastern Shore; Marc and Susan<br />

Hochberg, Greater Baltimore; Charley<br />
