WNC Foundation's Reach for the Stars fundraiser to help students, academics
Get ready for the outing of the summer. There are a number of reasons to make a reservation to attend the Reach for the Stars Gala on Saturday, Aug. 11.
Western Nevada College Foundation’s third annual gala raises money for the college’s students and academic programs and provides attendees with an unforgettable night under the stars at the Jack C. Davis Observatory.
This year, attendees will be treated to a full dinner. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will also be served and the band Trippin’ King Snakes will provide dancers with the tunes to groove. There’s also an opportunity to learn about the Perseid meteor shower and stargaze through the observatory’s state-of-the-art telescopes. All of the fun starts at 6 p.m.
