MSABC Wine Tasting Fundraiser - May 6, 2012 in Brentwood!



LET’S BEAT CANCER!


Please join us at the newest consignment shop in Brentwood, Diva on a Dollar (3850 Balfour Rd., Suite N, Brentwood), for a wine tasting event with raffle prizes to raise funds for my 10th Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk.



Sunday, May 6, 2012
11:00 am – 4:00 pm


WHY:
I walk in honor of my aunt, Virginia Saguing, and in memory of my cousin, Natalie Nobida, and a wonderful woman, Maureen Withrow.





I have a $3,900 fundraising goal. If I reach that goal, this non-runner and loather of cardio will commit to my first Team in Training event and raise the same amount in 2014 (post 1st baby) in honor of my loving grandfather, Victor Manzano, who has been living with leukemia for years and now has Stage 3 cancer.

I want to put a end to cancer! Read more at http://bernadettemanzano.blogspot.com/2012/02/making-strides-2012-towards-team-in.html

DETAILS:
Wine tasting is $10 per person and you will get to taste at least 6 different wines, if not more, and also receive a BONUS raffle ticket for great prizes. (See below!) Tasters will receive an entry form where they can guess the kind of wine, year, region of origin, price and winery name. They will receive a point for each correct answer. The three entries with the highest points will get 5 additional entries to the raffle.








While wine tasting, we invite guests to browse the new store for some fashionable and affordable finds, and visit with:

Danielle Stolman of Not So Still Life Photography

and myself, Bernadette, an Independent Stylist with Stella & Dot.

THANK YOU! I know this is a lot of information but if wine, shopping, socializing, and raffle prizes do not interest you, I beg you to FIGHT cancer by eating healthy, being active, getting mammograms and doing self exams regularly, get educated and encourage others to do the same. Walkers for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer cannot help you if you don’t help yourself. For more information, go to http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR?sid=99049&type=fr_informational&pg=informational&fr_id=36298

Have a little girl that likes to play dress up? I have especially made pink Breast Cancer bows by Sweetpea & Lovebug for $5.00 each. http://www.sweetpeaandlovebug.etsy.com
