There was much to celebrate at the 15th Annual GET WILD Benefit as the Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center of the Hamptons continues to heal and safely release animals back into the wild across Eastern Long Island. At this year's charity event, James Hunter and Fred W. Thiele, Jr. received recognition. Ingrid Edelman, Jane Gill, Missy Hargraves, and Jonathan McCann served as the event chairmen for this year's charity event, which was held in the Sagaponack sculpture field. Joseph Shaw from the Express News Group served as the event's emcee.

Live music, drinks, appetizers, and a silent auction were provided for the guests. The cocktail reception opened with a greeting to all visitors and featured visits by some of the non-releasable hawks and owls that the Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue Center has rehabilitated and now resides at the Center. The local fauna that was treated there profited from all earnings.

Thiele, jr., Jane Gill, Noelle Dunlop, Chris Strub, Missy Hargraves, Bruce Weber, Nan Bush, Jack Bishop, Maryann Marston, Brigid Fitzgerald, Jean Shafiroff, Ingrid Edelman, Sara Shala, Elton Ilirjani, Consuelo Vanderbilt, Pamela Morgan, Roger Sichel, Luisa Diaz, Julie Ratner, Soren White, MD.
