Las Patronas evoked the spirit of the ’70s at its 77th annual Jewel Ball. Lava lamps, VW buses, Studio 54-inspired tables, and sparkling disco balls were on display at the decked-out Daisies & Disco-themed gala at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club. The Jewel Ball was the culmination of the volunteer organization’s yearlong fundraising campaign and proceeds from the fabulous fête benefit numerous local nonprofits, with eight receiving more than $20,000 each.
