This past Saturday evening at the Westin Carlsbad Resort & Spa, hundreds gathered to honor Danny Villaseńor at the Boys & Girls Club Vista Gala. Danny first joined the Boys Club in Vista when he was in the fourth grade. He has been a faithful supporter of the Club for years, serving as a Board Member since 2011. He is a former Board President, was the Board Chair for the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Diego County Area Council from 2015-2016, and currently serves as Chair of our Safety and Facility Committee. Dan is the current owner of Peppertree Frosty, which was established by his father in 1963.
The Emcee for the evening was Heather Lake from FOX 5 San Diego. She introduced Matt Koumaras, President and CEO and also Board Chair, John Meyer. The highlight of the evening was when Danny told stories of his youth at the Boys & Girls Club of Vista.
Everyone celebrated in classic style with live & silent auctions, wine wall and casino games. All participation in this event directly benefits over 1,200 youth in our community who come to the Boys & Girls Club of Vista for safe and impactful experiences.
