YPO is kicking for the 2018-2019 season with friends and supporters looking forward to their 63rd gala, themed The Wonderland Ball. Members and guests enjoyed a night of wondrous jewels, fun, and fabulous entertainment at Maurice Jewelers. The Mad Hatter and Queen of Hearts were on hand to greet everyone, and YPO’s own Vice President Lise-Marie Wertzanzl hit a high note with the crowd with her rendition of “Pure Imagination” as they toasted the upcoming ball. The Wonderland Ball will be held November 3, 2018 at the Four Seasons in Brickell. The Gala chairs for the highly anticipated black-tie affair are Violeta Cepeda, Michele Reese, Patricia Scerpella, Barbara Waters and Nicole Unternaehrer. Kick off host Maurice Jewelers is the official jeweler for the Wonderland Ball. Since 1956, YPO has been committed to offering expansive opera education programs to more than 20,000 children each year, and supporting the Florida Grand Opera.
