Scene: 10th Anniversary of ReuNight, benefiting The Family Place, at Dallas Petroleum Club. Takeaway: There should be a charity version of fantasy football or college basketball brackets — something allowing us to play strategist with our local nonprofits' gala decisions. That said, if I were a betting man, I would have laid odds on someone finally putting together the power team of Brooke Hortenstine, Margaret Stafford, and Piper Wyatt. This incredible troika co-chaired (alongside honorary chair Joyce Goss) the fundraiser that supports the largest provider of family violence services in Texas, serving nearly 20,000 in 2022. High Point: For many, including myself, it was our first visit to the newly opened Dallas Petroleum Club (which moved into the Hunt Building earlier this year). The evening began on the 13th floor for cocktails, air-kisses, and spectacular views of the city. The Gospel of Light Choir, belting out "Oh Happy Day," led everyone to the 14th floor for the seated supper. And, what a treat awaited: stunning design by Todd Events and a three-course dinner by James Beard semifinalist chef Junior Borges.
