WineFest II
Our second year of the "GEF Winter WineFest II" was held in February, 2020, as a major fundraiser for the Glendale School District Education Foundation. This year's "wine tasting/sampling" included five wineries as well as another six vendors at the Glendale Fire Hall. For an entry fee of only $15.00 (for either of two scheduled sessions) guests were eligible to participate in our large basket raffle, 50/50 drawings and a raffle for a large donated item, with all proceeds going to the Glendale Education Foundation. Food and non-alcoholic beverages were available for a small fee. Our complimentary glasses were funded by generous donations from Glendale Alumni. Music was provided by Michael Reigh and dozens of donors and volunteers helped make our second annual event profitable, raising over $7,500 for Glendale students!
Our 2021 WineFest III event has been postponed due to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic. Watch this site and our Facebook page for plans and details of our next winefest, tentatively scheduled for February of 2022! |
