Arvada Sunrise Rotary’s Annual Food and Wine Caper September 18, 2010

NEWS RELEASE

The Arvada Sunrise Rotary holds its Annual Food and Wine Caper at Roth Distributing Center in Denver, Colorado.  Over two hundred guests join the Rotarians for an evening of wine tasting, bidding on silent auction items, and cooking demonstrations by celebrity chefs. The “Caper” is the club’s single, annual fundraiser. 

A Cook & A Chef

Top Chef and Restaurateur, Noel Cunningham and former Bronco kicker/super cook, Mike Ditchfield, maintain that “cooking is a blast.” Catch their show in the Culinary Center where they will show two ways to create wonderful food.

Hot Bluegrass Pickin’ & Singin’

by Southern Exposure, the band that plays contemporary and traditional tunes. They’ve played the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Rocky Grass, the

Denver Post Train to Cheyenne Frontier Days and the Democratic National Convention.

Serving Above Self!

The proceeds from the Food and Wine Caper fund the Arvada Sunrise Rotary’s many local and international projects.  Recently, the money has been used for the Backpack Project with the Arvada Food Bank, which provides weekend meals to Arvada school children; the Oldonyonyoke water project, which supplies water to a regional hospital in Kenya; and to create the Four Way Test ethics program for Jefferson County seventh graders. 

The 2009 Food and Wine Caper broke all previous records.  The Arvada Sunrise Rotarians are thrilled to use the funds to continue their established projects and launch new ones in Arvada, Colorado and abroad.  

The Arvada Sunrise Rotary meets every Tuesday morning at 7:10 at the Arvada Center for the Arts.  Visitors are always welcome!
