Pacifica Resource Center Gets Outta Sight with Recology of the Coast for Palm-a-Palooza 2019!

Hang out with Pacifica Resource Center & Recology of the Coast and help your fellow Pacifican at our Palm-a-Palooza fundraiser on Saturday, September 14 at 6pm at The Moose Lodge.

Over 200 guests will gather for tunes, a live auction, and sustenance from the Earth provided by local food trucks and real hip cooks at Palm-a-Palooza on Saturday, September 14 at The Moose Lodge (776 Bradford Way). And, if you haven’t guessed by now, this year’s Palm-a-Palooza theme is SUMMER OF LOVE, presented by PRC and Recology of the Coast. Guests are encouraged to come in their grooviest threads. As always, all proceeds from Palm-a-Palooza benefit the local families PRC serves with groceries, housing support, and other critical services.

As Palm-a-Palooza’s coolest presenting sponsor, Recology of the Coast’s core philosophy is to immerse their corporate culture in the cities they service. “I cannot think of a better way for us to do this than by partnering with PRC,” said General Manager of Recology of the Coast, Chris Porter, who has lived and worked in our community for over 40 years. “My personal mantra is, at the end of my days, I hope at least one person will say that I’ve touched their life in a positive manner... think how many people can say PRC has touched their life in a positive way!”
