A Whopping $269,000 + Reported Raised For the Center for Disability Services<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"
\nSARATOGA SPRINGS – As has become tradition, the 25th Annual Newton Plaza + Marini Homes Siro\u2019s Cup, a benefit for the Center for Disability Services, was held on July 19, the eve of opening day at the Saratoga Race Course. The Saratoga season was enthusiastically welcomed as more than 1,100 guests attended the silver anniversary of the signature event at Siro\u2019s in Saratoga Springs. The popular fundraiser brought in more than $269,000<\/strong> to support the Center\u2019s programs and services for people with disabilities and their families. Marylou Whitney and John Hendrickson attended as they have nearly every year.<\/p>\n

\n\"\"
\nBouquets were presented to event co-founder Jaime E. Cashier and to Mary Burgess, who has been a member of the Siro\u2019s Cup Committee for 25 years. Co-founder Gregory Smith and 25 year committee member Peter Burgess, Mary\u2019s husband, were also recognized during a brief ceremony.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nJames Fiorentino created original artwork of Justify securing the Triple Crown as the thoroughbred and jockey Mike Smith crossed the finish line to win the Belmont. Smith\u2019s valet, Harry Rice, graciously accepted the large watercolor on Smith\u2019s behalf because riding commitments kept him in California the night of the party.
\n\"\"
\nGuests could watch a livestream of the award presentation on large video screens and see photos from previous Siro\u2019s Cup parties as well as images of the Center\u2019s students, adult program participants and families.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThere was dancing to the music of The Electric City Horns and dishes created by the chefs and staff of Siro\u2019s especially for the occasion. Saati Deli + Catering provided starters and desserts were from The Cookie Factory and Hannaford.

\nNew this year was mobile bidding for an online auction. More than one hundred items featuring sports memorabilia, luxury products, jewelry, pet accessories, art prints, gift cards and more were available.

\nSiro\u2019s Cup and the Center\u2019s other fundraisers support vital medical and dental services and equipment needs at Center Health Care, mobility equipment for students and adults who have disabilities, communication devices, and renovations at the Center\u2019s fully accessible Clover Patch Camp. The Center for Disability Services, known as the place where people get better at life, also has four divisions: Down Syndrome Aim High Resource Center, Life Quality Solutions Incubator, Prospect Center in Queensbury and St. Margaret\u2019s Center, a pediatric and young adult skilled nursing facility in Albany.<\/em><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
