ALLENDALE’S APRÈS SKI VAL D’ISERE 

The North Shore’s most buzzed about event returned to Conway Farms Golf Club, transporting guests to the world-renowned après-ski scene of Val d’Isere in the French Alps. Hosted by Allendale Women’s Board, the evening featured theatrical surprises including fire dancers and illuminated dancing robots. Produced by ESP Presents with presenting sponsor Packaging Corporation of America, the fundraiser marked the second rendition of the après-ski-themed bash and set a new fundraising record for the 120-year-old board, bringing in nearly $270,000 for some of Illinois’ most vulnerable children. Veuve Clicquot and espresso martinis complemented a menu designed by Chef Paul Kahan of One Off Hospitality. The evening came to a spectacular “peak” with a surprise performance by tongue-twisting rapper Twista, who took the party to the next level. All proceeds benefit the children who are educated and cared for at Allendale. allendale4kids.org @allendalewomensboard
