Opening the evening’s benefit dinner, Michael Milken asked a series of icebreaking questions covering topics discussed during the weekend’s festivities which created a relaxed atmosphere and gradually eased attendees into the evening ahead of them. He followed with a special thank you to guests for their consistent support and commitment to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Every year, the PCF Pro-Am Tennis Tournament raises awareness of prostate cancer and supports the foundation’s efforts to eradicate the disease that strikes one in nine American men. PCF’s President and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Jonathan W. Simons touched on the progress made through their life-changing research. Immunologist and Nobel laureate, Dr. James P. Allison, dazzled the crowd with an impromptu harmonica performance.

Dinner started with grilled peach salad with baby arugula, frisée, goat cheese truffles, balsamic honey citrus dressing. The entrée was a duo of sea salt and spice crusted Montauk striped bass Provençal and herb crusted grilled chicken with shallot mustard butter, which was served with Beneforté super broccoli. Dessert was a trio of death by chocolate boxes, fresh berries with cream, key lime cheesecake lollipop with graham cracker crust.

Every year, the Gala in the Hamptons encourages support from long-time donors, amateur athletes, and new relationships. Celebrating everyone’s efforts, Grammy award winning musician Bryan Adams performed at the lavish dinner party and ended the night in high spirits on the dance floor.
