A crowd gathered to celebrate the grand opening of Gelson’s wine bar and newly remodeled grocery store. Since 1960, Gelson’s, then Mayfair, has been a part of the community. They supported four charities with gifts and then made a promise of a check to City of Hope when shoppers use the pink ribbon grocery bags. Friends of the Observatory received checks Silver Lake Reservoirs Conservancy. They announced that nearly 500 pets have been adopted through various partnerships with neighborhood organizations’ events at the store. Dr. Cheryl Revkin spoke on behalf of the Chamber, and gave a nod to Silver Lake Moms as well. She is pictured above with Gelson’s CEO Rob McDougall cutting the ribbon.
“Gelson’s keeps the silver in Silver Lake,” said Dr. Cheryl Revkin, Founder, Silver Lake Chamber
