Best Way to Stay Informed
Follow us on Instagram @pacificaoc for all the latest news and details regarding Bloom.
What to Wear
The dress code is formal wear, with a color palette of gold, white, and black. Guests can choose to dazzle in gold, keep it classic with black and white, or mix all three.
Things to Look Forward To
Guests arrive at check-in to claim their name tags, then proceed onto The Upper Lawn for mingling and refreshments, followed by a seated program featuring inspiring stories and videos to commemorate Pacifica's 10th anniversary.
Immediately following, guests meander to The Lower Lawn where student-artists welcome them with live painting demonstrations and the Bloom band, led by Pacifica Alumni, sets a festive mood.
Hearty food stations surround the lawn offering a variety of tasty dinner options and the full-service bar in the center provides complimentary beer, wine, and Long Drink as well as cocktails for purchase.
Guests are invited to kick up their heels whenever the mood strikes and dance the night away to live music under the stars.
Homemade cookies provide a sweet treat to end the evening.
How Bloom Is Different
Bloom is unlike any fundraiser you've ever attended. Instead of baskets and bidding, our hope is that you will be inspired to financially support Pacifica's mission when you experience the goodness of our community, the stories of transformation from our alumni, students, parents, and faculty, and the glory of God in our past, present, and future.
And whether you give or not, we are confident you will be so glad you came!
Parking
Ample free parking is available; follow the signs and greeters upon arrival.
