On Saturday, January 25, 2025 join us at the Oak Harbor Clubhouse for an enchanting night of jazz, gourmet dining, and spirited philanthropy. As the sun sets over Vero Beach, you’ll be serenaded by the smooth sounds of renowned jazz musicians as you swing, sway and jive to the tunes pumping through your wireless headphones. That’s right! GYAC’s silent disco is back!

Throughout the evening, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in silent auctions and make generous contributions that support the Gifford Youth Achievement Center. All proceeds from the event will go towards funding GYAC’s programs, which continue “Changing Lives, Changing Futures.”
