Parties, April 20-24, 2007

The weekend began with our Young Single Professionals Party on Friday, May 20, at The Cellar in San Francisco. Not as large as our last YSP party there, but still a good turnout.

Our Lock & Key & Dance on Saturday at the Crowne Plaza in Concord had a great turnout, despite the rain and closure of Hwy 4. I guess if people really want to come to the party, they'll get there no matter what!

The weekend concluded with our Cabernet Tasting Party on Sunday at the lovely Pacheco Ranch Winery. I was really worried about the rain, because we wanted to do the party outdoors in the lush ranch setting. We lucked out, it was a beautiful sunny day. We needed the sun, because if we had moved indoors we would not have been able to accommodate the large crowd!

On Tuesday, April 24 we had our first-ever Benicia party at First St. Cafe. We had our own private upstairs party room, with views of the water. Great ambience, terrific appetizers. I will confess I was worried that not enough people would show up, since Benicia is such a small town, and Tuesday is the slowest night in the party business. Boy, was I surprised! The place was packed, with good male/female ratio. We will definitely do another Benicia party!

This coming weekend we only have two parties. The first is our annual Black & White Ball for Singles, Friday, April 27, at David's Restaurant next to the Santa Clara Golf & Tennis Club. Always a great turnout for this elegant soiree! We conclude the weekend with a Wine Tasting Party at the beautiful Rios-Lovell Estate Winery in the Livermore Valley.
