Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County's 28th Annual Amazon Ranch Roam Hosted by Bergeron Family of Companies
The 28th Annual Amazon Ranch Roam hosted by Bergeron Family of Companies, presented by Friends of Tony Novelly, took place on Saturday, March 22nd at “Alligators” Ron & Ali Bergeron’s Green Glades Ranch. From 6:00pm to “when the cows came home,” everyone had a blast! Ranch Roam is country western’s version of “black-tie in cowboy boots.”
This year’s event turned out to be the BEST ONE YET! We had the MOST Cattlemen, Cattlewomen and Cattlekids EVER… 100 STRONG! Guests were surprised and delighted with interactive entertainment around every corner. With the evening celebration set in one of the South Florida’s most unique locations, “Alligators” Ron & Ali Bergeron’s Green Glades Ranch, guests could learn to line dance, ride a mechanical bull, try their luck at the casino or shop around with local vendors in our Country Chic Boutique. Our Boys & Girls Club Culinary Department brought tasty treats that guests could sample as well as creative crafts to showcase their talents. There was a silent auction, seated dinner, a special Rick Case Pinnacle Award presented to Gary Wendt, and a private concert by country superstar, Randy Houser! It was a night for the ages that did not disappoint!
