IWC Halloween Party, Corinthia Hotel, 31 October 2009

This 'Twilight Halloween Party' on October 31st saw the Corinthia transformed into an eerie land of blood, fangs, black capes and thirsty vampires!

The core organizing committee including NAWA’s very own Melissa Lippmann, Adrienne Athanas, Megan Leon, Adriana Hay and Renée Bélec and IWC’s Tasleem Lalji, Anel van der Wal and Pooja Sawlami did a wonderful job on all aspects of the event.

The room was beautifully decorated thanks to the enormous talent and brilliant mind of Dora Raphael, the event planner extraordinaire who donated her time and energy for this event — we can’t thank her enough for her contribution!

The food was delicious and the service by the Corinthia staff impeccable. DJ Mike Kovács had us all on our feet within minutes after the salsa dancers of Salsa Aerobics had already swept us off our feet with their spicy moves! Guests looked and played the part! But just in case, Sofitel Spa make-up artists were on hand to add that extra touch of drama!

And to finish off the evening with a bang, it was raffle prizes and silent auction galore! Over 50 fabulous prizes were donated by sponsors and partners in support of IWC’s Feed the Children Program and NAWA’s Adopt-a-Granny.

The success of this event would not have been possible without their generous participation and the participation of all those who attended and/or bought raffle tickets. What a great way to give back to the community!
