    Background on East End Wine Row:
    East End Wine Row is an association of Camel Valley tasting rooms located at the east end of the Village on Carmel Valley Road. Comprising seven unique tasting rooms, the East End Wine Row is not overly crowded and provides a warm, personal interaction with tasting hosts and winemakers.

    Carmel Valley is one of the seven appellations that make up Monterey County's diverse wine country and is perhaps the most distinct. Nestled into the towering Santa Lucia Range, Carmel Valley geographically defies daytime zephyrs and fogs, yielding the warm summer and fall days and cool nights that are especially favorable to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and other red varietals. Sauvignon Blanc and Zinfandel also perform exceptionally well in Carmel Valley.

    Location: East End Wine Row is 11.5 miles east of Highway 1 in Carmel Valley Village and comprises the following tasting rooms: Chesebro Wines, Cima Collina, Dawn's Dream Winery, Holman Ranch, Joyce Vineyards, Parsonage Family Winery and Silvestri Vineyards. Sip wine, enjoy the Carmel Valley sunshine and savor everything East End Wine Row has to offer.

    Background on Voices for Children -- CASA of Monterey County:
    Voices for Children - CASA of Monterey County is a non-profit child advocacy organization serving children in Monterey County's Foster Care System. Community volunteers train to become advocates called CASAs (Court Appointed Special Advocates) and are dedicated to the well-being of an abused or neglected child. CASAs strive to help foster children build permanent connections, look towards the future, and build trust. They offer support, encouragement, and guidance designed to ensure the child is well cared for while in foster care and receives needed services.

    The 'Gift of Giving' is Voices for Children - CASA's program that provides children in foster care with the opportunity to take part in the spirit of the holiday season. An important component of healthy relationships is learning how to give. CASAs through their dedication, show children what it is like to be cared for and treated with respect. The 'Gift of Giving' helps teach children how to give in return, how to express their affection for those around them. Between December 8th and 22nd CASAs will bring over 150 children to the Voices for Children - CASA office to pick out gifts to give to friends, teachers, and family.
