Join us on Sunday, February 28th from 3:00pm-5:00pm for the HRA Board of Advisors’ annual wine tasting and silent auction event at Springfield’s Doubletree Hotel. All proceeds support HRA student scholarships!
Wines from around the world will be available to sample. A VIP Tasting Pre-Event, 2:00pm-3:00pm, will allow guests to meet a winery representative in a more intimate, relaxed environment. Space at the VIP event is limited. Alumnus Matt Bekebrede, owner of Vino Cellars, is organizing the wine for both events, and alumnus Brian Inman, General Manager of DoubleTree Hotel, is coordinating appetizers that will complement the wine. All guests will receive a Riedel wine glass to keep.
Be ready to bid on a great selection of silent auction items including a weekend in Napa Valley! Guests will also be able to pre-purchase wine to be picked up at Vino Cellars. A percentage of sales that day will support student scholarship funds.
Reserve your spaces now by purchasing a table before tickets go on sale to the general public in January. A limited number of tables are available. The table includes admission with a reserved table for eight, eight Riedel glasses, choice of two bottles of wine from a menu provided by Vino Cellars and one small cheese plate with an option to add on eight VIP Tasting Pre-Event tickets.
Advanced single tickets (available in January) to the general tasting will be $20 along with an option to add on a VIP Tasting Pre-Event ticket for another $20.
Sponsors for the event include DoubleTree Hotel, Vino Cellars and M3 Accounting + Analytics.
