The 2011 Wildlife Center Annual Gala will be held on Saturday, November 5 at the historic Stonewall Jackson Hotel in Staunton, Virginia. 

The evening’s activities include:

• A Cocktail and Hors d’oeuvre Reception, sponsored by some of the Center’s education animals.  It’s a great “up-close” opportunity to meet and mingle with some of the Center’s famous wildlife ambassadors. 
• A Silent Auction, featuring wonderful and unique items, from inexpensive delights to breathtaking jewelry and original art.  Items will include luxury “night-on-the-town” and travel packages … the works of talented artisans and crafters … and gifts for kids and kids-at-heart.
• A Live Auction featuring a South African photo safari, estate jewelry, NASCAR tickets, an Outer Banks vacation … and more!

The cocktail reception begins at 6:00 p.m., and the dinner and live auction at 7:30 p.m.  The evening is black tie optional.  Ticket prices begin at $100 per person; event sponsorship packages are available.
