A Plethora of Fundraisers in Los Gatos This Weekend

When/Where: 6:30 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., Friday, , 140 W Main St.
Why Go: This is a benefit for the Museums of Los Gatos. But it's also a chance to either turn back the clock if you lived the era, or visit the time of the "Summer of Love" if you have not. As the organizers say, this will be "a groovy night" of poker tournaments, dinner, auction, and dancing!
