Crystal Ball Patron Party

On Sunday, October 21, Casa de Amparo held a special party to honor patrons who contributed $1,000 or more in support of the organization’s upcoming Crystal Ball Gala. The “Patron Party” was graciously hosted by Lizbeth Ecke and David Meyer at their home high above Encinitas. Over 50 guests enjoyed cocktails, wine and gourmet hors d’oeuvres donated and prepared on site by Chef Gregory Frey Jr. of BlueFire Grill at the La Costa Resort and Spa. Harpist Sheila Jaffe completed the ambiance.
