FREE FUNDRAISER: GUIDE DOGS’ VIRTUAL HOLIDAY CELEBRATION
Join us online this Sunday at 4:30 p.m. for the Virtual Holiday Celebration. The celebration of GDB's 80th anniversary continues, with heartwarming stories, lots of puppies, and opportunities to fund our mission, all from the comfort of your own home.

MUSIC: ROLLING STONES “LIVE”
Ten years after the Rolling Stones embarked on their 50th-anniversary tour, the epic, guest-filled New Jersey gig from that trek will be released as the live album Grrr Live!

The double-disc set is a nod to the Stones’ 2012 best-of collection Grrr! — spotlights the band’s Dec. 15, 2012, show at Newark, New Jersey’s Prudential Center, a concert that featured a litany of surprise guests like Lady Gaga (on “Gimme Shelter”), John Mayer and Gary Clark Jr. (“Going Down”), the Black Keys (“Who Do You Love?”), and Jersey’s own Bruce Springsteen, who performed “Tumbling Dice” alongside Mick Jagger and company.

EAT HERE: THE COLONY CLUB PS
Chef Michael Hung is at the helm at The Colony Club, Palm Springs, serving re-imagined classic Californian fare. On my recent visit Chef served up two yummy dishes: Thai yellow Curry and his Uncle Jim’s Chicken Adobo with rice. Both hit the spot. Menu highlights include: Chef’s Chicken sandwich with a bangin’ aioli and his mighty, meaty burger in a perfect brioche bun. Try the cocktails too or explore the expansive wine list. You can dine inside the main dining room with its modern take on Art Deco glamor, or enjoy warm breezes while eating al-fresco with views of the pool and mountains. This is my personal fave poolside spot to dine in the desert - check it out yourself, you’ll be jolly glad you did.

FAMILY FUN: HOLIDAY HEROES
Celebrate this season of giving with an event that brings the joy of the holidays to you, your family, and to hundreds of other Bay Area children and their families who need a little help to make this season magical.

Holiday Heroes is an inclusive environment where children and families from every background enjoy once-in-a-lifetime moments together that will take place Tuesday at Oracle Park, starting at 4:30 P.M.

1/3 of event attendees are sponsored families. For some, this will be their only celebration this holiday season, and the gifts they receive at our event will be the only ones they enjoy.
