"Last year's Rock the Race Derby Day was not only a great success for the Ann Storck Center, it was a great party enjoyed by a whole new group of Ann Storck Center supporters," said Jim McGuire, executive director of the Ann Storck Center.
Delicious delights will be provided by Timpano, Samba Room, Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Fort Lauderdale Country Club, Lauderdale Grill, and Publix.
