Grant County's
Most Exciting Event of 2022
Friday, April 29, 6 pm

valerie plame

Join the Grant County Community Foundation for this year's biggest event — and a night to remember!

Enjoy the beautiful scenic setting of Bear Mountain Lodge while sipping wine, savoring some of Southwest New Mexico's finest cuisine, bidding on exciting silent auction items, and taking in the intriguing real-life story of our very own local celebrity, Valerie Plame.

Valerie Plame is an American writer, spy novelist, and former covert CIA officer. In 2003, senior White House officials leaked her name to a news columnist in retaliation for her husband, Ambassador Joe Wilson, writing an OpEd in The New York Times in which he questioned the rationale used by the Administration to go to war with Iraq, and began the "Plame Affair."

All proceeds from this event will support the Grant County Community Foundation, which is dedicated to a shared and vibrant community through its many projects, area nonprofits, and the philanthropic passions of individuals.

A LIMITED NUMBER OF SEATS ARE AVAILABLE. You will receive an email with invitation and registration information on Friday, April 1, so be sure to RSVP as soon as possible after that.

For more information, contact Bernadette Smyth at 575.956.6095 or grantcountycommunityfoundation@gmail.com.

Thank you for all you do to make our community a better place!
