FUNDRAISING EVENTS

June 3, 2023
Join us for a casual and fun night of wine, charcuterie, friends, live music and donkeys

Benefitting Adams Pack Station,  this event will provide an evening of wine tasting, charcuterie and finger foods, live music and visiting with our favorite equines,  our resident donkeys. 

We will be nestled under the stars within the Big Santa Anita Canyon just  3 miles from the Sierra Madre and Arcadia boarder. 

Wine tasting will be provided by a select group of wineries to be announced soon. 

Ticket price $150:  

Ticket will include wine tastings of every wine available, a commemorative wine glass for the event, and charcuterie and finger foods throughout the evening

 You may purchase a full glass of wine separately after tastings. In addition to selling wine by the glass, we will have other non-alcoholic beverages for sale. 

Also, enjoy live music by the band, jennys and jacks, a newly formed local band in which the owner of the Adams Pack Station, Maggie Moran is a member along with local friends, Mike Swain, Hope Hazy, Eddie Hernandez, Burke Steed and Greg Kinne

Silent Auction:

Throughout the evening we will be holding a silent auction in which you will be able to bid to purchase items we will place in a specific area. Before the event, we will send out an email with all of the silent auction items, so you can be prepared to bid on something if you wish to. As a sneak peak of items, the portrait of our beautiful donkey CORA, the image of our advertising above will be up for auction. It was painted by a talented local artist Susan McCreary who has already sold another portrait of 2 of our donkeys and gave those proceed to the Adams Pack Station. Along with that portrait, there will be an array of items to bid on.
