I dedicate this space to the army of detail-oriented volunteers who do “whatever it takes” throughout the year to make this amazing event possible. There’s much to be done between one V Wine Celebration and the next, with literally hundreds of decisions to be made and thousands of details to oversee. It is with my sincerest gratitude that I reach out to all of you and express my deepest thanks on behalf of myself, the V Wine Celebration team and our V Board of Directors. I am honored to lead such an extraordinary team of unwavering volunteers. We are inundated with calls and emails about the incredible job that all of you do to help make the V Wine Celebration an unforgettable series of events for everyone. Our guests often tell us how amazing our volunteers are and notice the many layers of detail that went into the event-and we couldn’t do it without you!

We are well on our way to planning our 17th Annual V Wine Celebration. While the event itself is from August 6-9, as many of you know, we need over 100 volunteers to help us out during those critical days and during the week of preparation beginning Sunday, August 2, 2015. We have over 30 different volunteer tasks that need positive, professional, dedicated people to fill, such as amenity gift staging, dining room set-up, auction ambassadors, runners, spotters and celebration team members. We’re so excited about this event and hope that you will join us as part of Jimmy’s dream of “One Team…One Cause”

I thank each of you for your invaluable hard work, dedication and spirit. The V Wine Celebration is blessed and grateful to have the many talented people on our team, each striving to make each year more memorable than the last. Thank you so very much!

Hugs to all,

Sasha Ekstrom
