Lieutenant Colonel Gerdes is a 24-year military veteran who was commissioned as a 2nd Lt in the Military Police. Subsequent assignments have taken him to Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Honduras and Germany as well as the Pentagon. He holds a BS in Political Science, a Masters in Security Management and is a graduate of US Army Command and General Staff College as well as the Army War College. He has numerous military awards and decorations to include The Bronze Star, Army Superior Unit Award, Southwest Asia Service Medals, Iraq Campaign Medal, Parachute Badge and Air Assault Badge.

Kelly Corrigan “Family History – Can We Escape it?” - Rae Dorough Speaker Series
Kelly Corrigan, best-selling author of “The Middle Place” and “Glitter and Glue”, examines the reasons why we choose the people we admire and how that changes over time.

Pacific Chamber Symphony - Messiah
Pacific Chamber Symphony, now beginning its 26th year, is a professional resident company at the Bankhead Theater in Livermore. Under the guidance of its dynamic maestro, Lawrence Kohl, this group of brilliant musicians blends chamber music’s intimate clarity with the power and tonal richness of a much larger symphony orchestra. PCS provides a warm and inspiring experience to its audience. Come and share the thrill of new musical discoveries in some of the most beautiful music ever written: music from Bach to Mozart to Beethoven, romantic through modern, and commissioned new works from Bay Area composers. PCS has been recognized for combining insightful interpretations and exquisite execution. They were honored to perform at the United Nations 60th Anniversary World Concert Celebration held at San Francisco’s Grace Cathedral. AKQA’s collaboration and video of PCS’s “Mobile Orchestra” received the Silver Lion at the 2013 Cannes International Advertising Festival.
