Boot scootin’

Rita Shuma, Chelsea Collmer, Laurie Sanders, and Jennifer Wisler (pictured, from left) supported Sunshine Kids at the Boots and Bourbon fundraising event at The Ballroom at Bayou Place. It was a record-breaking night of two stepping and bourbon tasting for more than 350 guests who raised $450,000 for Sunshine Kids’ games and activities programming for children with cancer. Event co-chairs Chelsea Collmer and Laurie Sanders led the evening that featured a raffle, silent auction, bourbon pull, and live country music from Blake Harlow and his band. Emcee and auctioneer Johnny Bravo kept the party going, and supporters heard from Sunshine Kids executive director Jennifer Wisler and former Houston Astro and Sunshine Kids’ supporter Craig Biggio.
