State Rep. Brenda Gilmore is hosting the fifth annual ‘Hats Off to Bordeaux’ on Friday, July 28 at 11 am at FiftyForward Patricia Hart Building (174 Rains Avenue, 37203).
News Channel 5’s Lelan Statom will be the guest emcee. The event begins with a reception and silent auction at 11 am followed by the luncheon and hat fashion show at noon.
‘Hats Off to Bordeaux’ celebrates the historic community of Bordeaux, just north of Nashville and brings together FiftyForward center members, community leaders and local business partners.
All proceeds benefit FiftyForward Bordeaux in providing active aging programming for the Bordeaux community. FiftyForward Bordeaux offers activities and opportunities for learning and sharing, growth, fitness and socialization.
Center staff provides outreach services to area residential high-rise housing units. Through the Senior Nutrition Program of Metro Nashville Social Services, FiftyForward Bordeaux serves as a congregate meal site to provide meals to members Monday-Thursday. Transportation is available for a limited route in the community and scholarships for membership are also available.
