Strawberry Festival 2008 Strawberry Festival was another great success this year!! Between the silent and live auctions and donations collected throughout the weekend we were able to raise $11,750 for Brian Moorman's P.U.N.T. Foundation!! Although it rained early in the day, the clouds cleared and provided for a sunny warm afternoon. Brian was at the winery from 4p.m. till about 9p.m. signing autographs and participating in our live auction.
In 2004 Brian Moorman and his wife, Amber founded Brian Moorman's PUNT Foundation to make a difference in the lives of children in Western New York who face life threatening illnesses. The mission of the PUNT Foundation is to provide children affected by cancer and their families with the opportunities and support to enjoy the life they fight so hard for. The Foundation provides assistance, valuable family-centered programs and events designed to enrich their lives, and provide them with unique, memorable opportunities. We are very proud to be able to donate $11,750 to such a great cause and we thank everyone who came out and participated for their generosity. We also would like to give an extra special thank-you to our sponsors, Vecchio Brothers Heating and Cooling, Wal-Mart, Time Warner Cable, Media 1, Basil Chevrolet Buick Cadillac, Black Hat Chimney and Fireplace, New Era, Entercom Broadcasting, and The Paper Factory.
This September we will again be holding out September Fest. The dates for 2008 will be September 6th and 7th. We are excited to annouce that we have paired up with Kevin Everett and his Keven Everett Foundation. More details will be coming soon.
