Call for volunteers for Napa Academy Awards fundraiser

The holiday weekend through me off on the timing so part of this information isn't up-to-date, but this info is still better late than never... I heard last year's celebration was a smashing success, tons of fun and it wouldn't have happened without a dedicated crew of volunteers. Here's your chance to get in on making that happen:

The 22nd annual Academy Awards Gala fundraiser for the CARE Network at Queen of the Valley Hospital will return to the To Kalon Cellar at Robert Mondavi Winery on Sunday, March 7, 2010.

For the past few years, this event has been one of the Napa Valley Unity League's prime fundraisers. It is time to kick volunteer efforts into gear.

If you want to volunteer to help, please call volunteer coordinator Liz Alessio (Queen of the Valley liaison) at (707) 251-2007 as soon as possible.

If you want to serve on the core committee and can commit Monday nights AND MORE through March 7, then please attend the first 2010 Oscars fundraiser committee meeting at the home of co-chairs Chris Edwards and Scott Butler, in Napa on Monday, Jan. 18, at 6 p.m. We’ll get acquainted, chitchat and have a glass of wine for the first half hour. The meeting will start promptly at 6:30 p.m. (unless Hell freezes over) and will not run more than 1 hour. get in touch with Scott Butler by calling him at (707) 738-4040.

We are looking for a few committee chairs, so Unity Leaguers, step up to the challenge. It's your Oscars party, but most importantly, it's your fundraiser. If you are coming to meeting, please let Scott know. Again, [for general volunteering, call Liz Alessio, if you're interested in being a committee chair, call Scott Butler to see if there's still openings.]

Thanks,
Co-Chair Pierce Carson
