It was a celebration for a councilman Tom Labonge who has done a lot for the L.A. community for the past 40 years, especially helping the Griffith Observatory. Therefore there were few auctions to donate money so was surrounded by many wealthy people and politicians. The event celebrated LaBonge’s distinguished service to the Los Angeles community and his stature as a Star of Stars at Griffith Observatory. Actor Neal McDonough and KTLA 5 Morning News host Lynette Romero were Masters of Ceremony for the festive event. Definitely was a great social event with the best and distinguished people.
