Penfolds
Last year, thanks to the support of our Leadership Committee, Sponsors, and Board of Trustees, the event raised over $1.4 million to support CCS student scholarships and Community Arts Partnerships.
In addition to the many collectible wines offered, this event traditionally features unique auction lots such as trips to Paris, Italy and Spain as well as experiences such as "Tonight Show Experience" which includes the opportunity to bid on one of the first five retail production 2010 Chevrolet Camaros, tickets for four and a private tour of Jay Leno's extensive car collection and a NASCAR experience with pit access. Check back closer to the event for a listing of 2008 auction lots.
