Eastern Long Island Hospital announced that their annual Summer Gala has been set for Saturday, August 8.

The event will be hosted by Mark and Icim Miller of Southold, at their waterfront home overlooking the Peconic Bay.

“The property was selected by the 2015 Gala Committee because of its beautiful vistas and scenic views of Peconic Bay,” Maureen Mills, Gala Committee Chair said. “The committee is excited to add a new twist this year with the addition of an ’after party’ with music by ’One Love.’”

The gala, titled “Blue by the Bay,” will be celebrating the hospital’s 110th anniversary.

Proceeds will benefit the Emergency Department at ELIH.

Festivities begin at 5 p.m. with a raw bar, specialty food stations, passed hors d’oeuvres, local wines, craft beer and signature cocktails.

Dinner will feature local cuisine prepared by the chefs at the Jamesport Manor Inn served tableside, French, butler-style. The “farm to table” dinner features Turkish-themed cuisine including salad, two dinner entrees and sides. Dinner will end with a baklava dessert.

A sold out crowd is anticipated by the end of July, so guests are encouraged to purchase tickets early.

Tickets are $200 each and after July 15, tickets prices go up to $225.

Sponsorship opportunities start at $250.
