West Palm Beach, FL (Sept 23, 2014) — Grandview Gardens Bed & Breakfast, nestled in a tropical garden on Howard Park, is celebrating their 10 year anniversary with a fundraiser cocktail party. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Palm Beach Bike Jockeys. The Jockeys are a local group of cyclists raising funds for The SMART Ride 11, a 2 day-165 mile bicycle ride that raises awareness and funds for FoundCare’s Comprehensive AIDS Program of Palm Beach County and other HIV/AIDS organizations in Florida.

The 10th Anniversary Celebration is Wednesday, October 22 6 pm – 8 pm. Admission is a suggested minimum $25 donation. 100% of your donation goes towards the Palm Beach Bicycles Jockeys.

The resort is located at 1608 Lake Avenue in West Palm Beach.

“In celebration of ten exciting years, we are very happy to continue our support for the local community, in particular for the Palm Beach Bike Jockeys and the SMART Ride, which benefits our very own community health center, FoundCare,” said Rick Rose, Grandview Gardens Innkeeper.
