Annual Fundraising Dinner in Shenandoah Valley to Benefit Foothill Conservancy Sunday, June 14, 2009,  at Terre Rouge Winery

 
May 18, 2009 -- On Sunday, June 14, the Foothill Conservancy will hold its annual fundraising dinner on the beautiful grounds of Terre Rouge Winery in the Shenandoah Valley. The event begins at 4 p.m. and dinner will be served around 5:30 p.m. The winery is located at 10801 Dickson Road, Plymouth.

In addition to the dinner, the event features fine Terre Rouge and Easton wines available from a no-host bar, an exciting raffle and silent auction featuring “green” prizes, and wonderful company. Live music will be provided by Bobby D and the Blues Organ_ization and the petanque court will be open for play. Diners will enjoy barbecued chicken and pork, pasta, salads, bread, and dessert.

Proceeds from the event, sponsored by Terre Rouge and Easton Wineries, will support the Foothill Conservancy’s efforts to keep Amador and Calaveras counties’ “towns small, trees tall and rivers wild.” The Conservancy has recently spearheaded the effort to stop the expansion of Pardee Reservoir on the Mokelumne River and actively promotes good planning for our area.

Tickets for the dinner are $30 for adults, $10 for children under 12. For more information or ticket reservations, contact Susan Bragstad at 209-267-5506, send an e-mail to fhc@foothillconservancy.org or see www.foothillconservancy.org.   end
