Chicago Delivers Classic Hits and Lasting Memories at the 62nd Annual Ball
The 62nd Annual Ball was an unforgettable evening at The Boca Raton, where over 1,100 guests gathered for a night of exceptional cuisine, world-class entertainment, and a truly electrifying atmosphere. The legendary rock band Chicago—Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipients and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees—delivered a show-stopping performance. With over 120 million records sold, the band had the crowd on their feet, singing along to timeless hits like "You’re the Inspiration," "Colour My World," "If You Leave Me Now," "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is," and "25 or 6 to 4."
Beyond the memorable music, the evening honored the contributions of honorary chairs Rocco and Mary Abessinio, along with Barbara Gutin and Cheryl Elliott. With the generous leadership of event chairs Dr. Gail Rubin-Kwal, Richard Kwal, Daniele Schachter, and Mason Slaine, the ball raised over $3.2 million to enhance patient care services at Boca Raton Regional Hospital—funds that will make a significant impact on the community.
A celebration of generosity, timeless memories, and lasting impact, the 62nd Annual Ball was truly a night to remember!
