Cocktails and Tailpipes - 7/11/09

The lawn of the Fox Chapel Golf Club welcomed 200 guests — and some snazzy cars — to the 12th Annual Cocktails & Tailpipes event presented by the Shop n’ Save Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. Attendees enjoyed a cocktail and dessert reception, silent and live auctions, and a performance by House of Soul. The event raised $65,000 to benefit the Autism Society of Pittsburgh & Allegheny Valley Schools. Crown Royal, Nelson Financial Services, and RR Donnelley sponsored the event, which was organized by Beth Martin and Gigi Saladna, event chair and co-chair, respectively. Photography by Megan Wylie
