2026 Launch Into Spring Fashion Show and Luncheon Fund Raiser

The Launch into Spring Fashion Show and Luncheon, held on April 1, proved to be a tremendous success. The event attracted a sold-out crowd of more than 300 attendees. Guests enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch prepared by Smoking Valley Chef’s Brian Raymond while admiring the latest spring fashions presented by Chico’s, a popular store located on Hilton Head Island and favored by many Sun City shoppers.

The atmosphere throughout the event was lively and festive. Random guests’ names were drawn who received wonderful door prizes generously donated by Sun City Clubs and Groups, The Sun City Community Associations and local vendors. Additionally, a silent auction basket from La Dolce Vita Italian American Group featured an impressive selection of gourmet Italian items, creating the opportunity for a true Italian culinary feast.

Staying Connected extends heartfelt gratitude to a remarkable group of sponsors who made this event possible. The PLATINUM sponsor was the Sun City Mah Jongg Club. The WINE BAR sponsor was Integrity Home Care. GOLD sponsors included Sage Financial Services and
Ochsner 65+. The SILVER sponsor was Lawyer Lisa, while the BRONZE sponsor was Willy Fanning of EXP Realty. Friends of Staying Connected included Synergy Home Care and Sprenger Health Care Systems.

This event served as a major fundraiser for Staying Connected, supporting its mission of “neighbors helping neighbors” and our ongoing programs and services. Thanks to the enthusiastic participation and generosity of all involved, the 2026 Launch into Spring Fashion
Show and Luncheon not only provided a memorable experience for attendees but also made a meaningful contribution helping us support our Sun City community.
