The Grand Foundation

On behalf of the Grand Gala Committee and the Grand Foundation, we invite you to the 12^th Annual Grand Gala, being held at the beautiful Devil’s Thumb Ranch in Tabernash. This black-tie-optional, progressive-style evening welcomes Gala guests into two distinctive Ranch settings to enjoy an exceptional selection of food, libations, music and silent auction items.

The evening promises to be very entertaining. That Eighties Band and Gary Key will be back by popular demand!

The Festivities Begin at 6:00 PM

The evening is sure to sell out; therefore we encourage you to make your reservations now. Please call 970.887.3111 for prices and to purchase your tickets. Your support of this one-of-a-kind evening impacts thousands of lives in our community and is greatly appreciated.

Grand County Pet Pals provides funds to the Grand County Animal Shelter for its spay/neuter program for animals adopted at the Shelter, and to individuals and families in financial need for spay/neuter of their pets. Without the generosity and support of the community, neighbors, friends and family, Pet Pals would not be able to provide this assistance.
