I had a Liberace flashback when Ross began strutting around the GBM this morning in his new NDDC vest, promoting Saturday night’s NDDC 10th anniversary/Partnership Celebration, 6 to 10 p.m at The Grand.
I’ll be there with my sweetie, taking photos.
It’s open to the public, no cover, free d’oeuvres, lots of live music, and a helluva raffle.
Update 2 PM: Here’s the flyer on the raffle
For more details, see Ross’ blog post, or this email from Jessica Paxton:
