Grand Gathering 2025

In May, we hosted Grand Gathering—our annual member event that brings together supporters from across the country for a weekend of connection, celebration, and gratitude. This year’s event was a tremendous success, raising over $172,000 in support of park programs.

Grand Gathering emphasized deep appreciation for park staff and the importance of standing together to protect Grand Canyon. Attendees heard from special guests including author Dr. Tom Myers, Trail Crew Supervisor Adam Gibson, Superintendent Ed Keable, and GCC’s new CEO Elizabeth Silkes.
