The Ellen Hermanson Foundation held its Spring Warm Up Dance Party to kick off the 28th annual Ellen’s Run on Saturday, April 22, at Bridgehampton Community House.
The event celebrated hero, storyteller, and survivor Angela LaGreca and Ellen’s Run icon Eliot Rodman Smith, as well as Ellen’s Run’s number one fundraising team for 2020, 2021, and 2022, The Shocking Pinks, featuring team captain Sheryl Heather, Jeannie Sullivan-Curran, Maureen Drew, Erin Finley, Claudia Ferrara, and Dottie Macaluso. The event featured a live and silent auction, drinks, dancing, tastings, and more. Emcee and auctioneer for the evening was Andrina Wekontash Smith.
Proceeds support the foundation’s mission to ensure access to breast health care and empower people with cancer on the East End.
