Each year in the depths of winter, The Whale Foundation throws a big party called the Wing Ding in Flagstaff, Arizona. There is always good food, art, music, friends to see, and an auction. All of the proceeds from the event are donated to Whale Foundation so we can continue to offer services and support the Grand Canyon guiding community.
