“We always have a pre-event, but not always in such an elegant setting,” president and CEO Mary Barnes said at The Residences Mandarin Oriental Boca Raton, also a sponsor. 

CBS-12 anchor Liz Quirantes will emcee “Summer Time” at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Dec. 10 at St. Andrews Country Club. Michaela Page, a finalist on “The Voice,” will perform. The luncheon speaker is Robert Stone, executive producer of “Those on the Front lines of Alzheimer’s & Dementia.” 

ACC provides care for patients and caregivers and has an upbeat message for families: “Where there is help, there’s hope.” 

Among their programs are specialized care centers, a 24-hour crisis line, nurse consultants and an ID locater service. 

“This is our major fundraiser in south county. It gives families an understanding of how a local organization can help,” Barnes said. 

Among the guests and sponsors were Rosemary and Ben Krieger. Luncheon tickets at $115.
