On Friday, Nov. 18, over 400 guests reveled in ‘80s garb and danced to the music of Rubix Kube to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Windy Hill Foundation. Guests enjoyed the finest offerings of Salamander Resort & Spa Executive Chef Ryan Arensdorf, accompanied by wines from Middleburg’s own Greenhill Winery & Vineyards.
The evening featured a retrospective look at the Windy Hill Foundation through the years from founder Rene Llewellyn’s first walk down Windy Hill Road to the first college attendee. With remarks from Rev. Daphne Llewellyn Burt, Rene Llewellyn’s granddaughter, and Jimmy Roberts, one of the original board members, the audience was able to grasp the depth of Windy Hill’s
importance to Middleburg’s community.
The celebration included a live auction under the passionate direction of Matt Cahir and finished with a successful pledge drive to raise funds to purchase two much-needed transportation vehicles for the residents of Windy Hill. It was a magical night and one that the executive committee, consisting of Bridget Wilson, Bethann Beeman, Stephanie Bates and Beth Ann Mascatello, and the entire greater Middleburg community should be proud!
