40th ANNIVERSARY HERITAGE RANCH GALA HELD UNDER A FULL MOON
The Museum of South Texas History’s 40th Anniversary Heritage Ranch Gala was hosted by Joaquin and Lucia Spamer at La Morada del Viejo on March 23rd.
This annual event marks the culmination of a successful Heritage Associate Drive and was held to honor the 2024 donors whose collective contributions support a significant portion of the museum’s operating expenses.
Over 400 guests enjoyed prickly pear cocktails in the Horse Barn while trying a spin of the wheel to land on the name of a ranch where a previous Heritage Ranch Gala was held, then trying to match it to the ranch owner(s) to win a drawing ticket. The festivities continued in the Hunting Lodge and lakeside for gourmet grazing and mingling with FRIENDS of MOSTHistory under a full moon.
