Annual Events
Every year, Vanguard hosts two fund-raising events.
Annual Benefit Dinner
The first, which started
in 1995, is an Annual Benefit Dinner with Live Entertainment, dancing, great
food and a silent auction for items and services donated by our generous
supporters. This annual event is hosted by John Stamos and Loretta Phillips
Stamos and "put together" by all of the Vanguard Board of Directors, Committee
Members and too many volunteers to list...
John Stamos & Dr. Nagourney
Each year's event has a different "theme" such as "An Evening in Brazil" in
1995, "Jump, Jive & Wail" in 2000 and "Come To The Cabaret" in 2002. These
events have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to directly support the
Vanguard mission.
Bill Stamos Golf Classic
The second event is the "Bill Stamos Golf Classic" in honor of Loretta's
husband Bill Stamos. This event began in 2002 to increase Vanguard's annual
fund-raising efforts and to remember Bill Stamos enjoying one of his favorite
past-times.... Golf!
