On the Bunny Trail

Peter Cotton Tail Easter Egg Hunt at Doubles.
On the Bunny Trail with Peter Cottontail. Some of the city’s cutest kids and their families came out to celebrate Easter at the Doubles Club in the Sherry Netherland Hotel and the fourth annual Easter Egg Hunt and fun fest. 

The delighted guests such as two year old Aster Lee Lufkin with parents Dan and Cynthia ,and pretty sister Schuyler Hazard; a most enthusiastic Alex Errico, there with his mom Lisa and Tripp Ward with his mom Kristina Stewart and 4-month-old brother Garret. The club’s Guiding Light Wendy Carduner transformed the space into a Springtime Wonderland with balloons, brightly colored straw baskets, stuffed animals and larger-than-life bunnies and duck.
There was disco dancing and games like rabbit relays and potato sack races. Everyone donned the soft pink and white bunny ears, at least for a minute, and many had their faces painted or pretty tattoos placed on their forearms.

Enjoying the amusing afternoon were Jackie Yale and Courtney Brennen with sons Timothy and Nicolas and Roxanne the Bunny, Will and Cornelia Wedding, John, Mary, John Paul and Mary Barnes, Jamie, Will and James Roddy III, Lisa and Alex Errico, Cindy and Wilson Ketchum, Kathleen and Alexei Kocatas, Alexander, Phillip and Amelia Raftopoulos, Rebecca Kurtis with GiGi Winnakor, Lynn-Anne and Charlotte Huck and many more.

A week ago Tuesday the Ermenegildo Zegna held a cocktail party in their new flagship store on Fifth Avenue for the benefit of the Robin Hood Foundation. Afterwards there was a private dinner to mark the occasion at the University Club.

The Robin Hood Foundation was founded 20 years ago by hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones. Its objective was to help alleviate problems caused by poverty in New York. In the ensuing years, they’ve raised many millions at large and highly unpublicized (purposely) dinners in New York with world famous rock groups like The Rolling Stones and The Who entertaining the guests.

The organization is regarded as a pioneer in what has been called venture philanthropy, or charity that embraces free-market forces.
