Bistro 33                                                                            Panache Pony Club, City of Davis

Please join us for a community-wide celebration and rally.  Come cheer and make some noise to show your support for Gina's tremendous achievement!  We are expecting a large crowd from the community and hope it will be an inspirational day, especially for the young ones in the audience. 

Fundraising Reception:  Please join us for a reception to honor Gina Miles.  See Gina's Olympic Silver Medal, her Olympic Coat and Pin and hear her talk about the Olympic experience.  The proceeds from this fundraiser will help support Gina Miles' Olympic fund.  It is estimated that over $100,000 has been required over the last year to make the Olympic dream possible for Gina and her horse, McKinlaigh.  Gina needs your support!  I hope we can help her cover her Olympic expenses since she represented us so triumphantly in the Olympics.

Reception Tickets:  $50 in advance, $60 at the door
