The pictures we take will be posted on the portal, after the event, for you to download.

Games, Auction and More
Avoid the lines and purchase your jewelry boxes, beads and corks for the wine pull prior to the event. You can win amazing bottles of wine, fine jewelry and/or a $1,000 Visa gift card. The auction is now live and open.

Centerpieces
The beautiful gala wine decanter centerpieces are available for purchase through the gala auction site. You can take your purchased centerpiece home the night of the gala by checking out at the jewelry box table, or we will box it up for you and make arrangements for you to get later in the week. Please visit the auction website to purchase your centerpiece.

We can’t wait to see you Saturday evening!
