A night of music, dancing, food and live entertainment recently was held at the Riviera to help celebrate the history of the downtown Lake Geneva building and to help support local first responders.
"A String of Pearls" Gala was held Aug. 28 in the Riviera ballroom, 812 Wrigley Drive. The event was to honor the completion of the Riviera renovation project and the original construction of the building in 1932, as well as to raise money for the Lake Geneva Fire & Police First Responders Fund.
Many people who attended the "A String of Pearls" Gala at the Riviera ballroom enjoyed a night of dancing.
