love comes in many forms. some are founded in carnal desire, others in
demure interplay. some of the greatest forms of love are born of selfless
sacrifice for the betterment of others. which explains why gino and paetra
serra are such amazing lovers.
the serras spent many hours planning and executing this fundraiser for
boys hope girls hope,
a unique charity that seeks to rescue the scholastic futures of capable young
men and women from the adverse affects of poverty and/or damaged home life.
alacartoona would like to thank them for their hard work and for the opportunity to
support such an important cause.

vino100, provided the diverse selection of wines
- cosentinos provided a truly huge spread of delicious foods
