Eighth Annual Summer Dinner Dance Chicago Botanic Garden, June 24

GLENCOE, Ill. (June 24, 2011)—The Chicago Botanic Garden presents the eighth annual Summer Dinner Dance on Friday, June 24. The black-tie soiree begins at 7 p.m. with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres served on the Esplanade, followed by an intimate dinner dance in an elegant HDO Productions pavilion tent. The Esplanade is a 2.8-acre entry garden with dramatic annual gardens and elm allées, showy fountains and lakeside views. One of the most talked-about events on the North Shore and in Chicagoland, the Summer Dinner Dance celebrates the start of the summer season. Proceeds support the Garden’s conservation, education, and research programs.

The pavilion tent will be installed HDO Productions.  Heffernan Morgan will create the beautiful setting inside the pavilion to reflect the surrounding Esplanade. Passed hors d'oeuvres and dinner will be catered by Jewell Events. The Ken Arlen Orchestra will play while guests dance the night away.

The Committee for the Summer Dinner Dance is co-chaired by Mr. and Mrs. John H. Bryan and Mr. and Mrs. James J. Glasser. Tickets begin at $600; tables at $6,000. The Garden closes at 3 p.m. on this day. Last year’s event attracted more than 400 glamorous partygoers and raised more than $400,000. For more information and to order tickets, call (847) 835-6944.
