From all our Board and Staff, we would like to thank all our event sponsors, business partners, guests, auction donors and winners who made our 2nd annual Dinner on the Pacific Plate such a success. On Saturday, September 10, 2011, we had over 250 guests join us in celebrating our beautiful park by the sea. Guests enjoyed 1 of 12 pre-dinner hikes, cocktails and appetizers with many local vendors and dinner under an elegant tent presented by Pam Ferrari Catering. Environmentalist and journalist Doug McConnell hosted the evening's program and our young stewards of our summer camp program spoke about why their experiences at Point Reyes National Seashore means so much to them. Relive the moments by checking out our event photos taken by Paige Green, or be enticed to join us for the park's 50th anniversary next year.
