I had such a fun evening at the "Starry Nights" fundraising gala for Bennington Heights Elementary School.
Proceeds go back to the Bennington students, with a goal of replacing outdated technology in the classrooms & enhanced physical education experiences.

What an incredible day!!! 🥰
I rode around downtown Toronto in a tough-as-nails 1947 Cadillac Fleetwood with a great bunch of friends, all in support of The Distinguished Gentleman's Drive
