Celebrate Literacy Press Release
Woodinville Rotary Club will “celebrate literacy” at its 17th annual charity fund raising event October 6 at Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue.
The Rotary Wine’n Shine event will again feature a dinner and auction at which the nearly 400 attendees will appear in the costumes of their favorite figure in literature.
“With the support of our community service partners Banner Bank and Woodinville Wine Country, our club has given nearly $1.5 million back to the community over our 20 years in Woodinville,” President Rick Pisani noted. The club has 55 members.
Beneficiaries of past events have included Hopelink, Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center, Northshore Senior Services, Northshore Scholarship Foundation and 21 Acres, the emerging Sammamish Valley sustainable agricultural project.
Many of the auction items are wine related, co-chairs Greg Riggs and Chris Boland, said.
“Woodinville wineries participate in our annual project which this year features a limited number of Wines of Woodinville Collectors Barrels, an assemblage of handcrafted, premium wines produced by the 31 members of the association,” Pisani noted. Winery members also provide winemaker dinners for the auction.
Beneficiaries this year represent organizations with strong programs in the area of improving the ability to read among children and adults. These will include Reading with Rover, Kokanee elementary school summer reading camp, Listen and Talk program for deaf children, Hopelink’s English Language Learning program, dictionaries for all third graders in Woodinville area elementary schools, and the education resources center planned at 21 Acres.
