3rd Annual Hamptons Party Includes Four Events the Weekend of July 25
 
New York, NY – Safe Horizon’s Junior Council is hosting its third annual Hamptons party to raise critically needed funds and awareness among the next generation of leaders. A weekend affair, this year’s party includes four unique events.
 
The Junior Council will kick off the weekend with a welcome celebration on Friday, July 25th, at local hot spot The Stephen Talkhouse to get an early start on the festivities.
 
On Saturday, July 26th, guests will be invited to join the Council in the VIP tent at Bridgehampton Polo from 4 to 6 p.m. Immediately following the match, transportation will be provided to the Beachfront Blues & BBQ dinner. Held at a private residence in East Hampton, the evening begins with cocktails at 7 p.m. followed at 8 p.m. by a beachside BBQ dinner, live music and dancing under the stars.
 
Following the dinner, guests will gather at ultra-hip club DUNE Southampton for the Beachfront Blues & BBQ after party, where guests will enjoy more dancing to a DJ playing the latest music.
 
Since its founding in the spring of 2006, the Junior Council has grown to include 27 individuals who have dedicated their time and talents to work with our clients and raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for our critical services. The Junior Council has informed and energized young leaders in business, philanthropy and media, introducing over 1,000 individuals to our cause.
 
In May, the Junior Council was honored with the Champions for Tomorrow Award at the 2008 Champion Awards Luncheon. The award was created to honor the leaders of the next generation who help to carry our mission forward. The work of Safe Horizon’s Junior Council exemplifies that ideal, always reaching out in innovative and meaningful ways to educate and engage a wider audience.
 
On April 14th, the Council hosted the kickoff event for the Champion Awards Luncheon in partnership with actress Stephanie March and Calvin Klein designer Francisco Costa. The kickoff event, held at the Calvin Klein Collection Store on Madison Avenue, welcomed more than 400 supporters, including actors Mario Lopez & Cheyenne Jackson and model and fashion expert Kelly Bensimon.
 
The events of Beachfront Blues & BBQ are generously sponsored by Barefoot Wine, Continuiti National Interim HR Staffing, DUNE Southampton, Marchuska, Michal & Zachary Levison, and James Held & Kenn Karakul.
