We need your help in spreading the word, so please forward this email to your friends, family and colleagues.

Advance purchase tickets to the Wine Fest are $30 each, or $35 at the door. 100% of last year's proceeds provided 22 local high school students with scholarships for higher education.

For the first time, the event will offer a special Riedel wine glass tasting from 5:15pm-5:45pm. For only $100, this unique experience includes entrance to the Wine Fest, a professional tasting showcasing four different varietals of high quality wine, demonstrating how the various shapes of glasses enhance wine consumption. Participants will keep their glasses valued at $60. Tickets are limited to 40 people, so be sure to reserve now.

The event's huge silent auction including an original Amy Ringholz painting, hotel stays at luxurious hotels around the country, season ski passes, dinners at Jackson Hole's finest restaurants, rounds of golf at the valley's top courses, large format bottles of wine and much more.

The raffle will offer a chance to win $5,000 in cash. Consolation prizes include cases of fine wine donated by valley liquor stores. To increase the odds of winning, only a limited number of tickets will be sold. Tickets can be purchased online or at the event. You don't need to be present to win!
