2020 GORILLA GALA
Saturday, May 30, 12-4 pm
3400 Damascus Rd, Brookeville, MD
I am SO excited about this year's Gorilla Gala! Here are two NEW exciting elements about this year's event:
1. We will be welcoming a film crew from Inspiring Young Heroes who will be taking footage of the fun throughout the event. That footage will ultimately be shared with kids around the country in the hopes of showing that no one is too young to make a difference--and hopefully to get other kids excited about gorilla conservation!
2. We have decided to use Ellen's Game of Games as an inspiration for the theme! That means we will be putting a gorilla-spin on some of Ellen's most hilarious games!
