Here we are with only two weeks to go until our event! Where has the time gone? Oh well, the planning is going great and we are anticipating a wonderful day of golf, fun, great food, an awesome silent auction and a lively and spirited live auction. Oh did I forget the beer and wine tasting before dinner?
At this time we only have a few openings left for golf (we will definitely have a full field which is great!), so if you are interested and have a team, please get your entry form in right away. You can call me (Bob) at 720-5362 or Kate Ferguson at 331-6504 to secure your spot. You really don't want to miss any of the fun.
WE have hole sponsors at each tee ready to feed you, quench your thrist (with "adult beverages") and maybe even have a game or two to challenge us while you wait to tee off. Also a photographer to take your pic as a memento of the event will be positioned on the course. After the great day of golfing fun, we are going to have a really wonderful dinner. It will start with a Raspberry Walnut Salad, followed by a main course of Chicken Saltimbocca and Wild Rice Pilaf with Marsala Sauce, and finished with a Chocoalte Mousse Truffle Cake. Doesn't that sound delicious!
And, for those not interested in playing golf and just having that great dinner, we have a new treat just for you. From 5:00 until approximately 6:00 (when dinner will be served) we are going to have a "Happy Hour." That will consist of gourmet appetizers, and beer and wine tasting from many of our local and fabulous breweries and wineries. You will also be able to purchase the wines that you are tasting as well. And the price for the dinner and the Happy Hour is only $35. Try to beat that at any of our local restaurants!
Our silent auction will have over 50 items as of right now. We have restaurant gift certificates, crafts, items just for women, a Fun Kids Party Day, and a awesome collection of hard to find wines. We have a 5 Liter bottle of Estate Pinot Noir from Riverbench Winery here in Santa Maria (signed by the winemaker and vineyard manager), a signed Magnum of Pinot Noir from Longoria Winery, an etched Magnum of 2010 Kosta Browne Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir, signed by the two owners. Wine from Kosta Browne is not only hard to find (It is usually only available to their list memebers, of which there is a lenghty waiting period, or in fine restaurants), but Magnums from this winery are only made available to fundrasiers. We are very fortuante to have one! We also have a case of 2010 Loring Close Pepe Vineyard Pinot Noir valued at almost $600, a signed Magnum of 2009 Pessagno Four Boys Vineyard Pinot Noir, just to name a few.
In our Live Auction line up, we have a "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" package that includes a limo ride out to the beautiful Riverbench Winery, with a deli lunch and wine tasting for 6. Another hit will be a great golf package for four at four local golf clubs for the guys (or gals). We are also featuring a "Chef to You" package, where I, "Chef Robert" will come to your house and cook a 4 course gourmet meal paired with delicious Pessagno Wines for 8 people, BBQ package for 20, a Margarita Adventures Zip Line pkg and more to come.
Sound like a fun and exciting day? Bring your group out to play, or just come out for a fine dinner, with a treat of beer and wine tasting and auction heckeling. Sure to please everyone and dont forget our wonderful cause. It greatly helps the children in our valley with shoes, sweatshirts and we also helped out with musical instruments in the past.
Raffle tickets for a chance to win $2,000 in gasoline was as a hit as well last year so we have brought it back again this year. Tickets are $5 each or a book of 5 for $20. Please call us so you dont miss out!
