funny by accident. http://shanaray.posterous.com social media, tech, food and wine in a world that takes itself too seriously. posterous.com Fri, 03 Jun 2011 09:15:00 -0700 adventure auction lot facebook contest! http://shanaray.posterous.com/adventure-auction-lot-facebook-contest http://shanaray.posterous.com/adventure-auction-lot-facebook-contest

Single Vineyard Night is happening in a few short days -- This Saturday, June 4th to be exact.  To get all of our Facebook friends involved, we have a CONTEST just for you!! 

From 6:30 (5:30 for VIP Reception) to 10:00 p.m. at Thomas George Estates in Healdsburg, California, we will be hosting THE event in Sonoma County -- A single origin wine tasting from the Russian River Valley (where both the growers and winemakers will be pouring wines), small bites of food, a dance party and the night’s entrainment will be provided by the winemakers and growers of Russian River Valley wineries with the hilarious Adventure Auction Lots. 

These Adventure Auction Lots are unlike anything you have seen before - Made for a group of people to get together with their friends to bid on one adventure in Russian River Valley.  From the videos to our members dressed up at the event, these lots were a smash hit last year and they are back! 

All of the Adventure Auction Lots are sponsored by a Russian River Valley Winegrower member and the money for each lot will go to raise funds for educational programs and future events.

Each member thinks their Adventure is the best, so we ask you to vote for your favorite Adventure Lot video! Please visit our video tab on the Next Generation Wine Facebook Page and LIKE your favorite Adventure Auction Lot video.
