2010 Annual Gala



    

2010 Annual Gala

 
"Meet us at the clock!" On Saturday, March 27, 2010, The California Maritime Academy invites you to our Sixth Annual Gala at the Westin St. Francis Hotel on Union Square in San Francisco.

Gala chairs, Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Aspland look forward to another successful event as the proceeds from the evening will benefit the cadets at the Academy.

In addition to an evening of great food and camaraderie, the Gala will present a wonderful opportunity for guests to network with alumni, parents and colleagues in the maritime industry, while raising scholarship support for today's generation of cadets.

The 2009 Gala raised $120,000 for scholarships and educational programs for the Academy and we hope to significantly increase the support for cadets in 2010. To see a list of our 2010 Sponsors, click here.
