 There was a buzz in the air as people arrived in their evening wear in November to help raise money for a wonderful cause – the Christmas CanTree, a fundraiser for the Salvation Army. Some came dressed in tuxedos – a few even brought out their capes (for that Phantom of the Opera look) [...]  The 2nd Annual Sip and Support fundraiser for Christmas CanTree and The Salvation Army was another hugely successful event. Following its “Ha-wine-ian” theme, the Carvalho Winery was transformed into a tropical luau setting with attendees outfitted in brightly colored flowered shirts and resort casual attire. Guests feasted on roasted pig, donated by John Quinn and Jennifer Albiani-Quinn, and prepared by Steve Coutrakis of J & J Realty. Carvalho Winery generously provided the wine at a discount, and our non-wine drinkers enjoyed Barbara Harsch’s famous non-alcoholic Hawaiian Punch and beer donated by Miller-Coors. Channel 31’s Good Day Sacramento host Nick Toma and KFBK 1530 talk show host Terry Knight were the evening’s emcees. The Makamae Melia O’Polynesian dancers entertained guests during dinner, inspiring a few audience members to come up for a dance lesson. The evening was kicked into high gear following dinner when the Halie O’Ryan Band, featuring drummer Bobby Campbell of Coastal Pacific Mortgage, began their first set. People danced until midnight when the event concluded. More funds were raised as people bid on silent auction items and purchased raffle tickets for other great prizes donated by SAR REALTOR® and Affiliate Members. In addition, each ticket holder was entered into a drawing for three major prizes. Clint Swift won $500 in cash; Ava Simpson won an iPad; and Jennifer Merica took home a 42” flatscreen HDTV. Our major prize sponsor was CVM Law Group, LLC. Supporting the Annual Masters Club Charity Golf Tournament is not only fun, but contributes to the health and well-being of our community. Last year we donated nearly $10,000 to our beneficiaries. We hope to meet or beat that number this year, and your participation and support will make that possible! All proceeds raised at the tournament this year will go to The GreenHouse, Moral Values Program (MVP) and Wellspring Women’s Center.

[...]  In August we brought in Juliet Funt as our speaker for the Main Membership Meeting. She was hilarious. With a brief clip of an episode of her father’s old TV show, Candid Camera, she reminded us of how comical that program was and how families used to sit around the TV on a Sunday [...] So much is changing in the areas of risk management and litigation, [...]
