Fairmount Park Conservancy’s 7th Annual Centennial Celebration

The 7th Annual Centennial Celebration brought together a record 475 guests, including city tastemakers and do-gooders to celebrate one of the largest urban park systems in the world.  The Fairmount Park Conservancy honored the President  & CEO of Brandywine Realty Trust, Gerald Sweeney, City Council President Darrell Clarke, and John K. Binswanger Park Champion, Patricia Kind.  Guests included the Honorable Mayor Michael Nutter and first lady Lisa Nutter.  A delightful reception including an amazing silent auction kicked off the night, followed by an enchanting dinner catered by Stephen STARR Events. The awards ceremony honored those who have graciously supported the Fairmount Park Conservancy and the park systems.  With all the tremendous support, this year’s event raised almost 50% more than 2013’s event!
