An Evening Under The StarsSaturday August 25, 2007 |
out and about |

The fog rolled into town but the stars were still shining in Southampton as over 500 people at the Evening Under the Stars Gala for the Diabetes Research Institute excitedly awaited the supreme diva, Diana Ross. The athletic fields at Stony Brook Southampton were transformed for the evening into a massive tented cocktail area and ballroom by none other than event impresario Barton G. Jill Viner, our gracious hostess, was swathed in a fabulous pink satin ball gown and shimmered as she expressed her heartfelt thanks to all who had come to support the evening. As this cause is dear to her heart she reminisced about her brother, a diabetic, and how she and her husband Cliff Viner are so happy to bring awareness of the epidemic to the spotlight. The chic evening raised nearly $550,000 with donations still arriving to the Diabetes Research Institute. Photos by Kurt Leggard |
