The Guilford 375th Anniversary Crystal Ball took place Saturday, March 29th at the Pine Orchard Yacht and Country Club in Branford. Veronica Wallace’s team did a splendid job of locating a perfect spot, decorating the area and providing food, drink, music, dancing and conversational opportunities for all attendees. Near the fireplace, special site for many of the evening’s somewhat formal portraits, was a display table with a magnificent arrangement made by Guilford Greenery Florist and pictures honoring the 375th’s five Diamond Sponsors – Bishop’s Orchards, East River Energy, Guilford Savings Bank, Page Hardware & Appliance Co., and Yale- New Haven Hospital.
The images are grouped together as follows: (1) BEFORE THE BALL, (2) A TOAST TO GUILFORD WITH A BIRTHDAY CAKE, (3) GROUP/ TABLE PICTURES, (4) CANDIDS – DANCING TO “EIGHT TO THE BAR” AND OTHER FUN MOMENTS, (5) PORTRAITS BY THE FIREPLACE.
