For the past 25 years, Children’s Literacy Center (CLC) has strived to “Build a life of success through a foundation of literacy…ONE child at a time”.
-
The 2017 State of Literacy in Colorado Report from Stand for Children Colorado states that low literacy rates cost the country at least $225 billion each year due to non-productivity, crime, and lost revenue.
-
According to Stand for Children Colorado 61% of Colorado’s fourth graders cannot read at grade level.
These startling statistics are why the Children’s Literacy Center (CLC) provides effective one-to-one tutoring to over 500 students yearly at NO COST to their families. In support of these children, CLC hosted the 22nd Annual Vintner’s Dinner, October 27, 2018, at the beautiful 5 Star Broadmoor Hotel. Beginning with a silent auction, followed by a four-course dinner with wine pairings from a prestigious Vintner, and concluded with a live auction, this was a not-to-miss event.
HANDCRAFTED HARMONY
David Ramey spent his early career creating benchmark wines for such wineries as Matanzas Creek, Chalk Hill, Dominus and Rudd. With that impressive resume, David and his wife Carla founded Ramey Wine Cellars in 1996. They have been producing critically acclaimed, award-winning wines ever since, committed to Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Syrah as their primary varietals. Located amidst the natural charm of Healdsburg, Ramey Wine Cellars embodies the balance that is the essence of California wine:
- Absolute attention to the tiniest detail, balanced by a willingness to trust nature’s sometimes unpredictable impulses.
- A philosophy rooted in traditional methods combined with an eagerness to explore exciting innovations in the industry.
- The belief that life is for living, wine is for sharing, and harmony is essential to both.
