More than 400 partygoers gathered at the Jet Linx/ Signature Flight Support hangar at DeKalb Peachtree Airport to celebrate the 5-year anniversary of Simply Buckhead and raise funds for CURE Childhood Cancer. Sharon Fisher Events and Legendary Events transformed the hangar into a sophisticated black-and-white party atmosphere with furnished lounge areas and tables adorned with orchids and anemones. Attendees sampled food from signature Buckhead restaurants, including hand-rolled potato gnocchi from Davio’s and ahi tuna tartare from Ocean Prime, and sipped drinks from Stoli, Great Signature Wines, Sinless Cocktails and Gordon Biersch Brewery. A gift pull offered prizes— from bottles of wine to pieces of art— valued from $20 to several thousand, helping generate more than $12,000 and a generous donation to CURE’s mission of conquering childhood cancer through funding targeted research and supporting patients and their families. Atlanta Hawks announcer Bob Rathbun served as emcee for the festive evening and Ed Roland and the Sweet Tea Project rocked the house with live music.
