Kids Korps USA presents its annual Super Star Gala, at Del Mar Country Club. Titled “A Night At The Royal Ascot” and chaired by Christena Ferran and Marlene Holmquist, the event will pay tribute to British sporting heritage. Peruse the silent auction tables and “place bets” while viewing recorded horse races shown on large screens. Live auction items include a two-night stay in a three-bedroom villa with 24-hour butler service at The Resort at Pelican Hill. The evening also promises delectable cuisine, and dancing to the music of Barry Minniefield. This year’s Super Star Gala Leadership awardees include Rancho Santa Fe School, the Bobileff family, the Lichtenberger family, and the Scafidi family. Proceeds will go directly to help fund Kids Korps USA, which engages youth ages 5-25 and their families in hands-on volunteer service, addressing the needs of more than 350 organizations in our community. Tickets start at $350. (619/233-5008, www.kidskorps.org)
