Best of Broadway - Second Gala

October 18th, 2003 in the Galileo Auditorium

The second Galileo Gala fundraiser, held on October 18th, was a huge success. Attendees, mostly alumni, were treated to a medley of songs from the best Broadway shows. The highlight of the afternoon was an outstanding magician who appeared twice during the show. Speakers included Margaret Chiu, Galileo Principal, Dr. Frank Tom, Assistant Superintendent of the San Francisco Unified School District and Galileo graduate of 1968, Ron Ertola, head of the Galileo Sports Hall of Fame committee, and of course, Jim Dresser, GAA President.
