Bring back the Rat Pack.
The Beach Club was the setting for the Palm Beach Island Cats' Cat's Meow Ball on Jan. 25. As guests ascended The Beach Club stairs, the Rat Pack ball theme was set by a projection of a classic Frank Sinatra performance on the wall and large glittered photos of Marilyn Monroe and a young Sinatra, that flanked the entryway. Life-size cutouts of "Rat Pack" members were shown; each table was illuminated by a 36" martini glass, poker chips and various memorabilia of the era.
