2010 Inaugural Taste of Ravenna is a Success

The Foundation had a very successful 2010 Taste of Ravenna Wine Tasting that was held Wednesday 13 October 2010 at the Moss Ridge Golf and Banquet Center. 130 people attended and it was a great social event. Many items were donated for the door prizes and the 16 raffled baskets. In addition, many monetary donations were given over and above the ticket price. The “Cheeses Lady” and “Toffee Dolce” were big hits as well as the wine and beer refreshments provided by Ladd’s of Muskegon. Also, Ryke’s Bakery of Muskegon provided sandwiches that were quickly eaten.

We have very generous people in the Ravenna area and it showed at the Taste of Ravenna. In the end, more funds came to the Foundation which will allow the continued funding of scholarships and grants to Ravenna students. After all is said and done, it is still about helping to provide opportunities for educational excellence to the students of the Ravenna schools.
