Ramonan co-chairs benefit featuring Rainbow Riders

Ramona resident and interior designer Marlene Holmquist is co-chairing a gala in Del Mar to benefit Kid Korps of San Diego.

The event on April 28 will include a performance by Ramona’s Rainbow Riders Drill Team at Del Mar Country Club.

Holmquist, owner of Studio One Inc. interior design, has been riding with Rainbow Riders for approximately15 years and is donating a performance of the equestrian drill team, also called “Blue Angels on Horseback,” for the gala.

In addition to the performance, Super Star Gala 2012: A Night at the Royal Ascot will feature culinary specialties, horsebetting, and silent and live auctions. The event will begin at 5:30 p.m.

Funds raised will go toward Kids Korps’ youth service-learning and Hugs for Kids program dedicated to bringing awareness to issues related to self-esteem, depression, and other challenges that affect youth.

Holmquist said she is still looking for donations and auction items. For more information, visit www.kidskorps.org.
