On August 23rd Anthony and his family were invited to the exclusive Travers Celebration Gala fund raiser at the Saratoga Flat Track. There were 450 adults there and 2 kids (Louis and Anthony).
The food was incredible, the media was everywhere, and the guest list was a who's who list from Saratoga and beyond. After an amazing cocktail hour, everyone was asked to take their seats in the dining tent "on the rail". Anthony was introduced and he sang "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours" by Stevie Wonder. Everyone loved it. When he came back to the table, everyone at our table gave him a standing ovation and then toasted Anthony's talent and continued success. Everyone was very nice to us and of course asked for Anthony's and Louis' autographs. After dinner was over, Anthony got called up again and this time he belted out a flawless rendition of "New York, New York". The crowd was in awe of the big voice coming out of such a small body. Next there were fireworks over the track and then dessert. It was a beautiful evening and all for two great organizations,The Backstretch Employee Service Team and the Double "H" Ranch. Anthony hopes to sing more next year during track season in Saratoga.
