2013 Grand Grunion Gala
Save the date for the 2013 Grand Grunion Gala,  "Back to the Beach!"

Saturday, May 4, 2013

This elegant affair begins with a reception and silent auction, followed by dinner, live auction and event program. This year we are bringing the Gala "Back to the Beach!" at Cabrillo Marine Aquarium. We expect a sell-out with 400 guests including business and community leaders, scientists, educators, volunteers and friends. The Grand Grunion Gala is CMA's largest fund raiser. More than $1 million has been raised in the past decade to support Aquarium programs.
