The National Trust will be hosting its annual fundraising Gala on Saturday, March 29th 2014 from 11am -5pm. At this year’s brunch event entitled “Hatitude”, the Festival Green at Camana Bay will be transformed to give guests the feel of the Kentucky Derby or Royal Ascot.

The first of its kind in Cayman, guests will be treated to live show jumping and dressage parade by students of the Equestrian Center of Cayman. Other entertainment includes live auction, virtual horse racing, cigar rolling, wine tasting from West Indies Wine Company along with a Veuve Clicquot champagne tent. Camana Bay food vendors (Ortanique, Mizu and Upper Crust) will provide gourmet delicacies for all our guests to enjoy throughout the day while a live band will set the tone for dancing into the evening with a top DJ.

As the ‘must do’ event of the year, “Hatitude” tickets are being sold for $150 at West Indies Wine Company, Camana Bay and the Trust Office, Dart Family Park. Tickets are ideal for staff incentives or networking opportunities for important clients. Corporate tables are being offered at the discounted price of $140 per ticket and VIP Cabanas for $200 per ticket (minimum of 10 tickets).

NKY will be bringing in one of a kind Derby Hats and Fascinators to their Camana Bay store for ladies and men. Ticket holders will receive 10% discount off all hats.

All proceeds of the fundraiser will go directly to the National Trust’s Education Programme which teaches thousands of students the importance of protecing our unique environment and preserving our rich history and culture.

Special thanks to event sponsors Camana Bay, Equestrian Center of Cayman, Conyers Dill and Pearman, Caledonian, Grey Goose, Veuve Clicquot, Mizu, Upper Crust, Ortanique and West Indies Wine Company.
