Friday, May 14th guests were treated to great food, wine, music and weather at the Budweiser Stage-Tulare County Fairgrounds.  Eight Wineries shared their best with our guests and Milla Winery provided wine for all the tables.  Twelve Restaurants provided plenty of hors d’oeuvres for all our guests.  Congratulations to Hazel’s Kitchen for winning our “Best of Show” award for presentation.  The eleven custom birdhouses alone helped raise more than $4400.

Thank you to El Diamante Jazz band for entertaining our guests with live music, Paul Thomton for serving as Master of Ceremonies, and Flint Epps for doing such a great job as auctioneer!   Haagan Daz Ice Cream and A&W root beer floats added the sweet touch to the end of the evening.  For two weeks prior to the event the birdhouses were displayed in Merchant windows along Main Street. Thank you to the Merchants and the Downtown Visalians for helping us spotlight these wonderful works of art.
