A Good Drive, with Good Friends for a Good Cause...
Which Leads to an Intimate Gathering
Throughout Quail Lodge’s forty-two year history, special events have produced many wonderful and memorable experiences for our guests: from Star Gazing, Concerts by the Lake, Charitable Golf Tournaments to Motorsports Gatherings. Each of these unforgettable events are designed to support our community by generating funds to programs which help those in need. They would not be possible without the philanthropic spirit of our guests, the loyalty of our sponsors and the commitment of so many enthusiastic volunteers.
Please join us while we extend our most grateful appreciation and thanks to you: our dedicated guest, who have always supported our efforts and responded with generous donations; our loyal Sponsors, who have consistently participated in the creation of these events, thus allowing us to be better each year; and to our committed volunteers, who have given endless hours of their time to make these memorable experiences happen.
We also wish to acknowledge and thank Morgan Stanley, our Presenting Charity Sponsor, for their unconditional support on this fifth anniversary of The Quail. With their amazing support, The Quail will be able to continue it efforts in supporting these worthwhile charities.
