Join us for our 5th Annual DAC Gala featuring a Grand Masquerade Ball theme to raise money and acceptance for adults living with disabilities in the Coastal Bend!

Join us as we celebrate the 35th anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

It is with great pleasure that we announce Mike Gillaspia as this year's emcee for the DAC Grand Masquerade Ball!

A native Texan, Mike was raised in San Antonio. He has also lived and worked in the Dallas-Fort Worth and Midland-Odessa areas and is the father of four adult children.

Since 2005, Mike has made his home in the Coastal Bend, where he has had the opportunity to anchor and report for the local CBS, NBC and ABC affiliates. He currently serves as the Evening Anchor for KIII 3 News in Corpus Christi.

Mike has been recognized by both the Associated Press and the Texas Association of Broadcasters for his work as an anchor and appreciates the chance to interview newsmakers live and unscripted.
