Bonza Bash started in 2005 as a black tie house party for three
Australian ex-pats living in Seattle, WA and since grown into the most
prestigious collection of deliciously upscale, yet outrageously fun
formal-dress parties in the US Pacific Northwest. While the events have
grown, the core Bonza values remain the same - plan the most
spectacular parties for upwardly mobile professionals both young and
young-at-heart, while at the same time exposing local charities to the
generosity of this audience!The first bald eagle count of the winter was conducted Dec. 18 by
local federal and state biologists, and volunteers around lakes in the
San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountains.
A total of five adult
eagles were observed during the one-hour count. Two eagles were observed
in the Big Bear-Baldwin Lake area, one eagle was seen at Lake
Arrowhead-Lake Gregory and one eagle was counted at Silverwood Lake.
While no eagles were observed at Lake Hemet, one adult was observed at
Lake Perris.
Approximately 52 volunteers participated in the
census including 18 in the Big Bear area, three in Lake Arrowhead, two
at Lake Hemet, 11 at Silverwood Lake, and 18 at Lake Perris. The U.S.
Forest Service and State Recreation Area biologists organized the
counts.
There are three remaining eagle counts this winter set
for Jan. 8, Feb. 12 and March 12. Volunteers are needed. No experience
is necessary. Volunteers should dress warmly and bring binoculars and a
watch.
Coined a “Diamond Night in the Emerald City,” the Bonza Bash New Year’s
Eve 2011 Gala Ball combines a VIP experience with the charitable spirit
of the area, in order to benefit local charity, “Bridge of Promise.”
The event features a red carpet entry and complimentary coat check;
music will be provided by 18-piece swingin’ big band, “The Mach One Jazz
Orchestra,” Portland-based DJ Gigahurtz and Seattle’s own DJ SpeedyG.
Sponsored by shindigg, Buddy, Fremont Studios, PJ Hummel & Co. and
Karuza & Koh, the Bonza Bash New Year’s Eve 2011 Gala Ball will
feature the most decadent and luxuriously appointed VIP Lounge in town,
along with complimentary party favors, red carpet photographs, and
thousands of dollars in prizes and giveaways, as well as ultra-VIP
packages for those looking for the ultimate night out.
