WITH AN INFLUX OF NEW FAMILIES TO THE JERSEY SHORE, DSN PUT TOGETHER A SPECIAL GET-TOGETHER EVENT THAT WAS EXCITING AND FUN FOR ALL 200 GUESTS.
On the evening of Saturday, March 4th, adults came together to celebrate at a special event “Morocco On Park Ave.” In honoring DSN’s core value of bringing the community together, this was surely one of the most successful nights of the year. It was resplendent in creativity, style and spirit — and perfect weather crowned the night.
With a special events committee planning the evening, the charming home of Morris and Stephanie Levy was selected as the host location. The Levys helped make the evening unforgettable. The aesthetics of their beautiful home was an extension of the event’s vision, allowing for a memorable Moroccan evening.
The theme of the event was an exciting and unique choice that helped set the tone for the evening. Attendees were encouraged to dress in Moroccan-inspired clothing, and the waitstaff wore traditional garb with kaftans, further immersing guests in the theme. The decorations, food, and entertainment were also carefully curated to create an authentic and memorable Moroccan experience.
The event featured a range of activities and experiences, including a fully catered dinner by Nicole’s Kitchen, a Candy Treat Truck, desserts, tea bar, and socializing.
The preparations were extensive, with DSN’s Adult Chairperson Sonia Cohen commenting on how much she loved it. “Every year seems to get better than the last! The attention to detail and hard work that went into the planning was evident throughout the night.”
Adult Program Director Caleigh Silvera noted “I was so happy to see everyone enthusiastic, eating, smiling, laughing, and socializing! That equates to success.“
Hostess Stephanie Levy was overjoyed. “It was truly a pleasure to host this event. Life on the Jersey Shore is made vibrant by this great organization. Caleigh and her team were tremendous from beginning to end, with every detail done to perfection. We were so honored to enjoy the night with everyone!”
Overall, the “Morocco On Park Ave” event was a big success for DSN. Everyone enjoyed the festivities, and the attention to detail, hard work, and execution helped create an unforgettable experience. The rave reviews from attendees, such as Zoe Benun, demonstrate how much of a positive impact events like this can have on the community. “It was beautiful seeing people together for a night of fun and excitement while also supporting a good cause.”
