St. Jude Soars At Sponsor Party For Evening Under the Stars

St. Jude Evening Under the Stars is quickly approaching, and to thank the sponsors who are making this event possible, Margo and Jim Keyes held an intimate party at their airplane hanger on Thursday, Oct. 8. Evening Under the Stars co-chairs, Holly and Doug Brooks, thanked the sponsors and shared remarks as attendees enjoyed passed hors d'oeuvres and pizza from Urban Crust. Later, guests listened as Dr. Elizabeth Stewart, M.D., from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital explained the importance of the sponsors' support toward research at the hospital. Many St. Jude supporters attended the party - including Dan and Lydia Novakov, Scott Murray, George and Marian Bryan, and Alan and Pennie Marshall. The St. Jude Evening Under the Stars party will be held on October 24 in the Omni Dallas Ballroom, with proceeds supporting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Tickets can be purchased online at, stjude.org/dallasevents.
