The 64th Annual Golden Beaver Awards Dinner will be held on Friday, January 11, 2019 at the J.W. Marriott at 900 W Olympic Blvd just south of downtown Los Angeles, California. This hotel is part of the vibrant LA Live complex that includes the Staples Center, Microsoft Theater and many fine restaurants.
Over 2,200 people attended last year’s dinner, and we expect an equally large turnout for this prestigious and formal affair. Our guest speaker this year will be Anousheh Ansari, the first female private space explorer.
Welcome to our on-line registration. We accept credit card payments though this on-line registration system. If you choose to still pay by check, you can register on-line and choose to send a check for your tickets.
One of the benefits of our new on-line registration system is that you will be able to update your guest list yourself, right up to the day prior to the dinner.
To reserve a complete table, 12 tickets must be purchased.
You can also request hotel rooms through our on-line registration. The hotels fill up very quickly and only accept reservations made on the web site or by filling out the manual housing form enclosed in the registration booklet sent via mail. Room confirmations will be sent through Par Avion, who handles the reservation process for our meeting. Like last year, we are using the Marriott Courtyard/Residence Inn and Hotel Indigo for our overflow hotels.
Please take a minute to review the event information tabs on our registration site. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our office.
I look forward to seeing you at the dinner.
Yours Truly,
Dave Woods, Executive Director

Anousheh Ansari dreamed of space exploration since her childhood in Iran. On September 18th, 2006, she blasted off for an eight-day expedition aboard the International Space Station, becoming the first female private space explorer, and earned a place in history as the fourth private explorer to visit space and as the first astronaut of Iranian descent.
Ansari, co-founder and chairwoman of Prodea Systems, is a major pioneer in the connectivity of the home, the networking of businesses, the potential of women in entrepreneurship, and innovation in general.
Ansari and her family also provided title sponsorship for the Ansari X Prize, a $10 million cash award for the first non-governmental organization to launch a reusable manned spacecraft into space twice within two weeks.
