Get Ready for the Georgetown Gala, This Saturday at the Four Seasons

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The “Streets of Georgetown” will be celebrated at the annual Georgetown Gala of the Citizens Association of Georgetown, with more than 450 guests celebrating Georgetown and CAG’s mission of historic preservation and improving the life of the community. The evening will include cocktails, a high-end silent auction, a dinner buffet, a cigar bar on the terrace and music by For the Win, one of D.C.’s top party bands. At the Four Seasons Hotel, 7 to 11 p.m. To purchase tickets, contact cagmail@cagtown.org.

The 2017 gala co-chairs are Michelle Korsmo, Colman Riddell and Amy Porter Stroh, who are inviting one and all to come and enjoy a great night of fun with friends and neighbors for a great cause. As a plus, because the Mark Twain Award will be presented to David Letterman on the following night, expect some serious celebrity watching in and around the Four Seasons.
