View the full moon rise above the Santa Catalina mountains, as you sip a glass of wine, sample scrumptious food, and listen to music - and of course one of the best parts - bidding on all the wonderful auction items. And don’t forget you can always extend the evening and purchase a room at a special rate to stay at the Hilton even with your dog.
