Countdown to Quest for the Summit

February 28th, 2012

Last Wednesday, Charles and Catherine Granger opened their home to the hosts of Explore Austin’s spring fundraiser, Quest for the Summit, for a sophisticated and delicious happy hour.  Thank you to Catherine Granger for making the happy hour such a beautiful event!  In attendance were hosts and a number of Explore Austin staff there to celebrate and thank our hosts for their support they have shown the upcoming Quest for the Summit.  Todd Hanna, Explore Austin’s CEO, spoke about how the hosts can spread awareness and be advocates moving forward towards this exciting fundraiser.  Catherine’s sister, Lyndie Clement, catered the event, serving delicious, gourmet hors d’oeuvres and a selection of desserts.  The staff of Explore Austin would like to thank Catherine Granger and Catherine Parks for their hard work on making this year’s Quest for the Summit such a fantastic event.

We can’t believe it is only one month until Quest for the Summit.  As the weather is warming up this week, we are getting more and more excited about our awesome outdoor venue at Contigo Austin.  Definitely check out this month’s edition of Texas Monthly, in which Contigo was just named one of the Top Ten Best New Restaurants in Texas.  We hope you’ll consider purchasing a ticket to Quest for the Summit, March 31, 2011.  Come join our awesome hosts, sponsors, staff, and supporters as we celebrate lives being changed at Explore Austin.  It is going to be an unforgettable night!
