LaChance Vineyards is hosting a benefit event for the City of Kimmswick on Saturday, November 7th from 6PM – 9PM. Get all of the details from their eventbrite.com page below:
The City of Kimmswick is in financial trouble due to the cancellation of their festivals in 2019/2020 and we want to help!
In 2019, the city fought flooding which caused the cancellation of the 2019 Strawberry Festival and then bad weather created slow attendance during the 2019 Apple Butter Festival.
In 2020, we have all been dealing with the economic struggles of Covid and the City of Kimmswick is no different. The City had to cancel the 2020 Strawberry Festival and the 2020 Apple Butter Festival along with all other city events.
These events make up 80% of the city's operational budget. Losing those events has put the city in a very tough financial situation and we want to help. That is what neighbors and friends do in a time of need. We join together and help each other out because it is the right thing to do.
Tickets will be $10 per ticket with 100% of the ticket sales going directly to the City of Kimmswick.
- For the $10 ticket price, you get hors d'oeuvre's, a drink (glass of wine, beer or sangria) and live music by Three Pedro's.
- There will be additional food and drink available for purchase during the event.
- We are hosting the event in our large heated event tent so we can ensure everyone is comfortable and able to enjoy the evening.
- The City of also accepting additional donations via their website: cityofkimmswick.org
With everyone's help we are hoping this will be a great event that benefits the city that we all love so much!
