Over 580 guests attended Under One Sky on Friday, October 15, the annual fall fundraiser for Wellness House. The stars aligned during an incredible one- of-a-kind evening where 3 suburban locations: Butterfield Country Club, Chicago Highlands Club and Hinsdale Golf Club were held simultaneously, all under one sky. Led by eight Luminaries with a profound history of supporting Wellness House, guests at all locations enjoyed cocktails, a seated dinner, wine auction, program, live auction and dancing. The live auction and paddle raise were conducted via live feed which brought each location together as one to raise over $800,000.
