Thank You for Supporting the 2025 Beats & Bites Event Series

We had such a blast hosting our Beats & Bites event series from May-September this year. We have so many individuals and groups to thank for helping make this event a huge success!

Firstly, we would like to extend a tremendous thank you to our series sponsor, Convergence Health. We are so grateful for your continued support of GBC and our students!

Thank you so much to everyone who participated as community partners and event attendees! Thank you to the individuals and businesses who donated raffle items and attendees who purchased raffle tickets to help us fundraise for GBC scholarships and programs.

Thank you to all of the food and beverage vendors and entertainers that partnered with us throughout the event series as well. We hope to see you all back on our campus soon.

Additionally, we would like to thank our GBC team for their support, including:

• The facilities and security teams for their constant hard work helping us with setup and teardown
• The Continuing Education department and DRI Robotics for providing family-focused activities for the community
• Recruiting, the Student Government Association, and other departments that shared information and resources
• All of our GBC staff and students that took time on busy weeknights to attend and show your support

It was such a fun summer having so many community members join us on our beautiful GBC campus for Beats & Bites! We can't wait to welcome the community back to campus again soon during upcoming fall and winter 2025 events.

A Very Successful 2025 GBC Foundation Golf Classic

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 2025 GBC Foundation Golf Classic on August 2, 2025!

Due to the generous support of numerous local businesses and participation by our community as a whole, we are thrilled to announce that we had more sponsorships and more golfers this year than ever before!

The involvement of the Elko community helped make our 2025 GBC Foundation Golf Classic a great success! Not only was it a day of fun and friendly competition, but more importantly, the proceeds will directly benefit the students and programs that rely on our community's support. We are truly grateful to everyone who participated for your commitment to making a difference. We hope to see you all again next year!
