With a grand and elegant style, the Flintridge Guild of Children’s Hospital recently hosted their Deck the Halls Boutique & Brunch at the Shakespeare Club, where a large contingent of La Cañada Flintridge residents participated in a festive event attended by a sold-out crowd of more than 300 guests and patrons. The proceeds benefitted the CHLA endowed chairs of Abdominal Transplant Surgery and Endocrinology.
