In observance of National Girlfriend’s Day TEAM Abilities, an agency that supports adults with special needs, is hosting a Garden Party Brunch to be held Saturday, August 3.
“We know women have a heart for service and also like to have a good time,” Rachel Jelks said, CEO & Founder of TEAM Abilities. “We have planned a Garden Party, complete with Derby-style hats, where girlfriends can come together, have a fun time and support adults with special needs.”
The menu for the brunch is nothing short of exquisite featuring Shrimp Etouffe, Chicken & Waffles, Scrambled Eggs and Sausage, Bruschetta, Roasted Rosemary Potatoes, Prosciutto wrapped Asparagus, Green Beans Almondine, and an Arugula Salad with Pears, Candied Pecans, Goat Cheese in a Raspberry Vinaigrette. Desserts offered are Petit Fours, Lemon Blueberry Bars, Macaroons and a variety of Chocolates. On tap will be bottomless Lavender infused Champagne Cocktails, Mimosas, Sweet Tea and Lemonade. All provided by several local caterers.
“I love the look of the big derby-style hats for this Garden Party,” Jelks said. “We will be giving out Cash Prizes for three categories of Derby-style hats, namely: Biggest Brim, People’s Choice and Most Creative. We will also be giving out door prizes throughout the brunch. If people don’t have a hat we will have a few on hand for a donation.”
TEAM Abilities is an acronym for Together Everyone Achieves More Abilities and it takes a village to provide for our residents. TEAM Abilities recently celebrated its 14-year anniversary and offers an ISS day program and 19 Community Living homes.
“Many of our residents are wards of the state so we essentially are their family,” Jelks said. “We provide meaningful birthday celebrations and magical Christmas mornings. We are hoping that we get a great turnout for our National Girlfriend’s Day Garden Party Brunch so we can continue to provide for our members.”
The event takes place on Saturday, August 3 from 11:30am to 2:30pm at 611 Westridge Drive in Spring 77380. There will be a solo guitarist providing music, a scrumptious buffet, fellowship and a few silent auction items. Tickets are only $35 on Eventbrite with limited seating at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/garden-party-brunch-national-girlfriends-day-tickets-962142051777.
