The Los Encinos Community knows how to step up and make a big impact, and the 2018 Spring Gala was no exception. Keeping with the school-wide theme for the year (natural world), guests were invited to a camping/outdoor-themed night at the “Los Encinos Lodge” hosted at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center. An at-capacity crowd showed up in their best camping attire and were welcomed with sips (including the evening’s signature drink, The Campfire Sour), snacks, and a beautifully curated Silent Auction led by Harriett Ching. This laid back, fun part of the evening set the tone for the rest of the night as attendees made their way into the main ballroom for the rest of the program.
Many thanks to Ilene, the Board of Trustees, and the Parent Association Board for supporting our efforts, being open to new ideas and helping us find ways to execute our vision. Thank you to the entire event committee for the countless hours you put in to make the night so very special. And finally, a HUGE thank you to the entire LES community, parents, staff, alumni, and friends who continue to be the heart and soul of our very special school — your commitment, generosity, and dedication are remarkable and you helped make this event soar above the sequoias!
