Summer Sips & Sounds

Music of the 1920s

People from all over the country rushed to invest in one of the most iconic of the "boom era" projects: Addison Mizner's Boca Raton. The musical event will kick-off with a cocktail reception at 6 pm followed by the performance starting at 6:45 pm. The food sponsor for this event is St. Andrews Country Club.
