Break out the leg warmers, tease that hair to the max, and get ready for an evening of neon lights, classic beats, and retro vibes! Gary’s Plumbing & Heating is proud to sponsor the Whatcom Center for Early Learning’s Annual Auction & Gala, happening on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at the beautiful Semiahmoo Resort.


This year’s theme? The ’80s! That means it’s time to moonwalk back in time for a night of glitz, glam, and totally awesome fun—all while supporting an incredible cause.


An Evening to Remember


The night kicks off with a lively Social Hour from 4:30 to 6 p.m., followed by an inspiring program and dinner from 6 to 9 p.m. Then, from 9 to 10 p.m., it’s time to hit the dance floor and show off your best ‘80s moves!


📍 Location: Semiahmoo Resort, 9565 Semiahmoo Pkwy, Blaine, WA 98230

🎭 Dress Code: ’80s Glam, Rocker, Preppy, or Totally Tubular—anything goes!


Not only will guests enjoy a night of great food, music, and fun, but they’ll also have the chance to make a real difference in the lives of children and families served by the Whatcom Center for Early Learning (WCEL).


Make It a Weekend to Remember!


Why stop at just one night? Extend the fun with a Mother’s Day Brunch at Semiahmoo on Sunday, May 11th. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the amazing moms in your life while wrapping up an unforgettable weekend.


Plus, gala attendees can enjoy a 15% discount on an overnight stay at Semiahmoo (discount code coming soon!), so you can relax in style after an epic night.

Supporting Our Community
