While it may be disappointing that Mother Nature is throwing a damper on the festivities, the backup plan is in place to provide a great evening of fun and fundraising.
Here’s an idea — Why not make reservations at the Hyatt, check in, spend the night and have breakfast ala room service before heading home?
