Costume Prize Winner Julie Smith Concession Lady

More than 400 revelers ascended on Central Park for the first major costumed event of Halloween week in New York on October 26th: the Central Park Conservancy’s Green Ball, its 15th annual Halloween party. Guests enjoyed a night of festive costumes, dancing, dining and cocktails under tents transformed into a magical green wonderland.

Led by Suzanne & Robert Cochran, Judy & John Angelo, Kristy & Jonathan Korngold, John Stossel, Anita & Stuart Subotnick, Patsy & Jeff Tarr, Julie Wurts, Kipton Cronkite, Corrente Schankler and Amy Tarr, the ball was a monster success. The event raised nearly $700,000 for the Conservancy and its mission to restore, manage and enhance Central Park.

Revelers included CPC President Douglas Blonsky; NYC Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe; Women’s Committee President Gillian Miniter with her husband Sylvester; emcee and WABC meteorologist Lee Goldberg; Liz & Jeff Peek; Fiona & Eric Rudin; Jeff Tarr, Jr.; Fiona and James Benenson; Christine Cochran; Lauren Cochran; Judith-Ann Corrente; Vim Kooyker; Jennie Tarr Coyne; Chris Coyne; Clay Floren; Beatriz Garcia; Jennifer & Stephen Rich; and Sabrina Wirth.

They dined on a mouthwatering menu by Danny Meyer’s Union Square Events and danced to music by DJ Tom Finn.

WABC’s Lauren Glassberg & Kemberly Richardson joined Harlan Bratcher, President and CEO of A/X Armani Exchange, to judge the wildly popular costume contest. Winners were awarded fabulous gift packages from The Surrey hotel.
