Faces & Places
ALL THAT GLITTERS

It was a sparkling night at the Daisies & Diamonds Gala benefit for Hospice of Orange & Sullivan Counties in Newburgh. An all-star cast of nonprofit leaders, corporations and supporters of hospice turned out -- some even wore diamonds -- for the event March 24 at Anthony’s Pier 9 in New Windsor.

More than 300 guests had a chance to bid on some unique items during a silent and live auction, A Schwinn bike, designed by Orange County Choppers; tickets to Broadway shows; and a trip to Yankee Stadium with bus service, compliments of Dana Distributors, were among the tempting auction gifts.

Some of the glittering guests are pictured here.
