Celebrate ENH’s Founder, Gary Nightengale

Greetings Friends & Families of ENH –

Many of you know that this past fall ENH lost a dear friend, and co-founder, Gary Nightengale. As we approach summer, we will be hosting a celebration of Gary’s life, and an opportunity for friends to gather and remember the amazing contributions made by Gary.

A celebration of Gary’s life will be held on Saturday, June 21st from 1 – 4pm at San Mateo County Memorial Park. Memorial Park is located right next door to Loma Mar, and is approximately an hour from Santa Cruz and 90 minutes from San Francisco.

While their is no fee to participate in this event, each family will need to pay their individual entrance into the park.

Please feel free to bring a story, song and poem to share to help commemorate Gary’s life.

If you are able to attend, please RSVP to Tracey Weiss, ENH Executive Director at tracey@exploringnewhorizons.org or (831) 338-3013.
