Some of the most committed friends we know are at Acorn Soupe in Napa, CA. Their focus is no less than opening the minds of our youth to the endless relationships and responsibilities of the world we inhabit. Annually, Acorn Soupe has a benefit auction whose donors include the most well known names in Napa wine artistry. The proceeds go to the programs which Acorn Soupe offers to bettering their community. Please visit a list of the associated donors. Here is an excerpt from Acorn's website:
Join us on Saturday, September 23rd, 2006, as Spottswoode Estate hosts ACORN SOUPE’S 7th TREE OF LIFE Annual Gala featuring London-born charity auctioneer, DAVID REYNOLDS. The evening is set at Spottswoode Estate on the western edge of St. Helena in Napa Valley. The 46-acre estate, established in 1882 by George Schonewald, is distinguished by the historic Victorian home depicted on the label. Classic formal gardens grace the entrance to the house, while the 40-acre vineyard stretches behind to the Mayacamas Mountains.
A vast array of wines, including collectible vintages will be offered at the auction along with marvelous getaways. Join us for a memorable evening of casual elegance underneath the stars enjoying a sumptuous meal complete with fine Napa wines.
Doors open at 5:00 p.m. Seating is limited to 200 - limited tickets still available. $150 per person. For more information, contact us at [email protected].
As this event is a fundraiser to support our children’s programs, we ask that you support our policy to consider all purchased, yet unused tickets/ tables a donation within 45 days of the event.
