Co-Presidents, Oak Brook Chapter, Kathy Sievertsen and Marci Hanzlik

For over three decades, Mistletoe Medley has been a must-attend event for women in the western suburbs and beyond.  This year’s event, held at Drury Lane on Dec. 3, was another one for the record books with proceeds estimated to be over $150,000.

There were outstanding special and preferred raffles and shopping with 20 great exhibitors just in time for the holidays.  After lunch, over 600 guests were treated to a performance by the talented young ballerinas of the Salt Creek Ballet who danced to the Waltz of the Snowflakes.  Then came another spectacular fashion show produced by Tracey Tarantino, longtime Oak Brook Chapter Member and Executive Director of Zzazz Productions, featuring fabulous fashions from a dozen high-end boutiques and retailers.
