Gala-tic Success!
The Throggs Neck Bid’s First Annual Gala was an extraordinary success! Approximately 330 guests filled the Villa Barone Manor to celebrate the amazing success of the young organization, which included making the commercial district the cleanest in the borough, bringing new street lights, improving safety, and exceptional beatification, among many other accomplishments. So much more is planned for the future! Thanks to both those who attended and those who supported the evening by purchasing journal ads. (Photo: Executive Director Bob Jaen address the crowd.
