Starry, spectacular night for EBAC Masquerade Ball

Saturday night October 29, 2011 proved to be spectacular in terms of weather and in all details of the East Bay Agency for Children Auxiliary's Masquerade Ball, its major annual fundraising event of the year.

A spectacular English Tudor home in the Oakland Hills was the site for "An Evening Under the Stars," where more than 160 guests were served a sumptuous seated dinner with a spectacular 270-degree view of San Francisco Bay.

A clear tent sparkled with festive lights in late October when the chill is usually just setting in. Amazingly, the stars did align for the evening as they were twinkling with  a waxing moon in the distance.
