For over 25 years guests have attended and supported The Rotary Club of Oakland's annual Wine, Food, & Beer Festival. Once again, this event will be held in the beautiful garden of the Oakland Museum of California. This year our fundraiser, a benefit for the Oakland Rotary Endowment, will feature sparkling wine, fine wine and specialty beers, along with a wide variety of gourmet foods, and desserts. In addition, Jazz Artist Terrence Brewer will be providing music throughout the day, there will be a Green Pavilion, Lifestyle Expo booths, guest performers AND we are having a GRAND RAFFLE with a top prize valued over $1000!
Your Wine and Food Event Chair this year is Lisa Gardner, and together with her devoted committee are hard at work to provide you with a great afternoon of entertainment and epicurean delights. We look forward to a fantastic event and hope that you will join us, rain or shine. As can be seen by the sponsorships and dedicated participants, the benefits of this event are valued not only in Oakland but throughout the Bay Area. The proceeds from this event are the primary source of support for our local and international efforts by The Rotary Club of Oakland. With more than 350 members, Oakland Rotary #3 is one of the largest and most active service organizations in the Bay Area.
On behalf of the Food and Wine Committee, we encourage you to support and patronize those that are supporting this important fundraiser. Whether they are a Corporate or Individual Sponsor, Food, Wine, Beer, Lifestyle, or Green Booth participant and/or a GRAND RAFFLE prize donor, these people are giving generously of themselves to help make this event a success. Please see the Sponsor and Participants page for a complete listing of these businesses. |
