| "Tiny Bubbles and Big Stars" was the theme
for this year's opening night gala for the
13th annual AT&T Jazz Festival in San
Jose. The sold-out event kicked off the music
festival and raised money for the San Jose
Jazz Society. More than 500 music enthusiasts
celebrated in style at the San Jose Repertory
Theatre and enjoyed the premiere performance
of the San Jose Jazz Orchestra, conducted by
Dennis Wilson and featuring Count Basie
Orchestra vocalist Jamie David. |

| The Cattle Baron's Ball won't happen until Sept. 28, but it's not too early for members of the sponsoring Grand View League to think about what they'll wear to the gala fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. So a fashion show featuring attire from The Silver Buckle was just the ticket when the 2002 Provisional Class presented its Summer Social and Barbecue Aug. 3 at the Los Gatos estate of Orla MacLean. More than 125 members and their guests attended the event, which was themed "Fashion Roundup at the Tropicana Ranch." |
