This event is to help raise funds for a new exhibit at The Living Planet: penguins! This addition to the recently unveiled gallery, Journey To South America, will take visitors to the South Atlantic Ocean on an exploration of the Falkland Islands to learn about penguins. The Falkland Islands are home to several species of penguins such as the King, Gentoo, Rockhopper, Magellanic and Macaroni. Penguins migrate to the Islands to breed in September and depart in early spring. Penguins' curious and gentle nature, grace in the water, and clumsy, funny movements on land, have landed them a spot in the hearts of children and adults alike. This year's Gala will be held at La Caille, Utah's premier ultra-luxurious dining experience. Located on 22 acres of Salt Lake's most coveted Little-Cottonwood Canyon property, La Caille's grounds offer breathtaking views, manicured gardens, exotic wildlife, canyon rivers, lush vineyards, winding brick lanes and authentic French decor. La Caille itself is housed in an 18th century French-inspired chateau. La Caille is a twelve-year AAA Four-Diamond Award recipient. The contemporary French menu and service has earned praise nationwide. The Gala includes a wine/cocktail bar, classic La Caille menu items, a live and silent auction and live jazz. The aquatic life in and around the waters of South America is among the most diverse on Earth, and most people will never get the opportunity to see it. This entire region also needs protection and care. The aquarium believes that by teaching people about the Earth's ecosystems in a fun and interactive manner, we are providing them with the tools to be good environmental stewards. Your sponsorship of this year's Scales & Tails Gala will showcase your company to a select crowd at Utah's premiere restaurant. Help bring penguins to The Living Planet Aquarium, and provide a fun and entertaining evening for you and your guests. There will be several different sponsorship packages for your review. A follow-up call will be made to you in the next week to answer any questions you may have about the various options available for The Living Planet's Scales and Tails Fundraiser Gala.
