"Wine Women and Winter is the largest fundraiser of the year for the Lakeland Pantry," the release states. "Always sold out, this beautiful holiday gala provides a wonderful venue where community women come together in camaraderie to raise funds to help feed more than 2,600 families served by the pantry. Forty percent of this total is children."
A wide selection of red and white wines will be served including some organic wines. All are personally selected by the committee members working together with John Aiken of SaveMore Marketplace. Wines will be available the night of the event for ordering at special pricing. A selection of specialty and holiday coffees from Little Creek Coffee in Arbor Vitae will be offered by Little Creek Coffee staff at the event, according to owner Cherie Abendroth.

Completing the menu will be gourmet desserts baked and served by Wild Berry Market's Cora Rudisill, owner of Eye Candy Cakes.
Holiday and Christmas music will fill the air while attendees enjoy the evening. The local, acclaimed, singing group Trillium will perform as well. Plus, look for the very popular team of "WWW men in black and white," who will be on hand to check coats, sell raffle ticket sales, and serve wine.
