19^th Salute to Achievement - Journey of a Dream

June 10, 2011
 

"Once you take hold of your dream, it fills you up and your
light shines from within.  And it guides you.  And it's what
people see when they see you.  It's not an easy journey, but
it's an important one, and with perseverance, a moment of
inspiration can come at the seemingly unlikeliest of times..."

--Storyteller,  Paloma Gratereaux    

To those who attended, thank you for being part of Boys & Girls Harbor's 19th Salute to Achievement - Journey of a Dream.  A full house of donors, students families and friends experienced a wonderful collaboration of artists at varying stages of their journey.

A very special thanks to Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble, Cheryl Wills, the Tishman family, and to all of the Harbor Conservatory students and faculty, for creating an authentic and unforgettable experience.

I want to again thank Tony Duke, the Harbor Board of Directors, chaired by Steve Dannhauser, as well as Karen and Bill Ackman, and Presenting Sponsor Pershing Square Capital Management, LP.  And to all our donors, thank you for helping us raise more than $1.3 million through this year's Harbor Salute.

As we begin planning for our 75th Anniversary, I encourage you to share how you envision the Harbor in the next 75 years: springboardtofuture@harbor.org.
