Tricia and Francois de Visscher hosted the 12th annual Belle Haven Challenge Cup fundraiser for Shake-A-Leg on September 29, 2007.

The regatta was launched from the waters off of the Belle Haven Club, Greenwich, Connecticut. The skies were clear and blue, a gusty wind blowing from the southwest as 8 magnificent America Cup yachts raced across the waters of Long Island Sound.

The evening festivities took place at the de Visscher home in Belle Haven, Greenwich, Connecticut. Over 300 guests dined and danced on into the night at the celebration party.

Patricia and her committee has brought the event to new heights, building on the great contribution of Dean and Janie Gestal (the founders of the Belle Haven Challenge Cup in 1996) and great work of Marna and Chuck Davis, who donated their efforts from 2000 to 2004. Both couples continue to be great supporters of Shake-A-Leg.
