Other details: On Saturday, February 7, DC VIPs and young professionals attended the annual Sweethearts and Patriots gala, a evening which is mutually organized by young members of the District of Columbia Society of the Sons of the American Revolution and members of the District of Columbia Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. During the patriotic black-tie event, the SAR Color Guard marched through the parted crowd and performed their ceremonial ritual, which was then followed by the National Anthem. Throughout the evening guests bid on a collection of items in a silent auction and waltzed to a live orchestra performance by Moonlight Jazz Orchestra while enjoying light fares at the bar, desserts and light hors d'oeuvres. Attendees also paid witness to an artist live-sketch the evening's packed event while also posing for photos in front of the gala's step-and-repeat with the SAR Color Guard, muskets, and revolutionary hats and wigs. Miss DC 2014, Teresa Davis, was also in attendance to support the charity event, where she was seen mingling with numerous guests.
