FAQs
-
What should I wear?
The evening begins with an outdoor reception and transitions to dinner in a heated tent. We invite you to explore what "outdoorsy chic" means to you—nice jeans, a classic button up and a fleece? Great! Remember that layers are a must in the Marin Headlands. And leave your heels at home—comfortable walking shoes or boots are in order.
