LeMay – America’s Car Museum celebrated its 10th anniversary gala, where more than 320 guests experienced the wanderlust of classic and modern car chemistry. Guests enjoyed the black tie evening catered by El Gaucho.
A pivotal highlight of the evening occurred when Nancy LeMay commanded the stage. Not only was the automotive matriarch richly entertaining, she also started the raise the paddle at $50,000. By the end of the greased lightning gala, more than $600,000 was raised from the paddle portion alone. $1.2 million was raised for America’s Automotive Trust.
Michael Towers, Board Chairman and David Madeira, Vice Chairman for America’s Automotive Trust, joined Museum architect Alan Grant and his wife Lisa Grant along with the evening’s distinguished guests for a post-event fireworks show sponsored by PNC Bank on the deck of the Museum overlooking Tacoma. In addition to the dazzling fireworks, patrons indulged in the Montecristo Cigar Tent Afterparty with dancing on the plaza under the stars.
