Benedictine’s Annual Spring Benefit
April 29, 1978 – that’s how long we’ve been gathering as friends to celebrate as a Benedictine community. Since that first Spring Benefit, we have continued to host this hallmark event in the spirit of hospitality and philanthropy. Friends, staff, parents, and a couple of distinguished guests along the way, join us for an evening of food, fun, and even some dancing each Spring.
Over the years, we’ve hosted our annual gala at several different venues, but Spring Benefit calls the historic Tidewater Inn home. Each year a community of co-chairs, generous sponsors, and board members help to make this event a success. Described as “a casual gathering of friends,” we hope you will join us for an evening you won’t forget.
