GOLDEN RETRIEVER FOUNDATION GALA
The social highlight of the Golden calendar, the Golden Retriever Foundation Gala at the GRCA National Specialty is the primary fund raising event of the year. This black tie evening features the prestigious Top Twenty conformation dogs judging, selecting the best of the best from the top winning show Goldens of the year. The Gala also hosts a silent auction of selected art work with a rousing live auction of the most unique pieces. An elegant dinner and special announcements from GRF round out an evening of glamour and entertainment.
