The Living Desert 40th Anniversary Gala was A Wild Affair to remember.

Enter if you dare…Classic Palm Springs with assistance from Classic Orange County erected a 100′ x 140′ structure with dramatic lighting to house the gala for 450 supporters of the local zoo.

In addition to the main structure, Classic provided a 30′ x 60′ plate up canopy and a 30′ x 30′ open top canopy for caterer Le Vallauris Restaurant of Palm Springs.

Carpet on the floor, staging, lucite lectern, tables, chairs, linens, all cooking equipment and tabletop items were also provided by Classic. 

The Tracks in the Sand Conservation Awardhonored Ms. Karen Sausman, President Emeritus of the Living Desert. Karen was the first CEO and spearheaded the development of the property over the past 40 years.

Monies raised will fund the expansion of additional areas of the zoo.
