Holiday elegance //
The Richmond Chapter of Continental Societies Inc. hosted its annual “Elegance in Black & White Gala” last Friday at a Downtown hotel. More than 200 people enjoyed the black tie dinner-dance and auction featuring entertainment by the Katz Band and comedian Micah “Bam-Bamm White.” From left, Congressman Robert C. “Bobby” Scott, Continental President Nkechi George-Winkler, Vice President Beverly B. Davis and Dr. Ralph S. Northam, Virginia’s governor-elect, pause during the gala for a photo. The event raises money for the Continental’s annual programs, including winter coats for needy schoolchildren, dental screenings, Easter baskets for hospitalized children, scholarships for college-bound students and camp scholorships for inner-city youths.
