The San Diego Opera opened its season with La Bohème. Guests arrived to the champagne reception at the downtown U.S. Grant Hotel in gowns and tuxedoes. Among the patrons were Title Sponsors Valerie and Harry Cooper, sponsors Jennifer and Richard Greenfield, Lynda and Richard Kerr, Helen Davis, Lee Clark and Dr. Jerry Pikolysky. After the performance guests stayed late for dancing to the tunes of the Atomic Groove. The Dow Divas once again chaired the event.
