PURCHASE TICKETS
A party is planned on behalf of Cal Lutheran athletics ... and everyone's invited.
The inaugural Wine & Beer Walk Fundraiser will be held from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, April 25, at University Plaza. Guests will be able to meander around campus while listening to live music and sampling food and drink selections from such vendors as Tarantula Hill Brewing, Institution Ale and Cavelleti Vineyard.
Athletic Director Howard Davis said every dollar raised by the event will go toward the Victory Club, which covers expenses related to postseason play as well as efforts to enhance the student-athlete experience (e.g. updating banners in the baseball stadium, throwing a welcome-back barbecue).
Tickets are $99 for the general public and $75 for Cal Lutheran faculty and staff. Children (10 and younger) are free. While the event is geared toward adults, there will be activities for young children, including a bounce house.
Davis said his office has been trying to devise new and creative ways raise additional funds to support Kingsmen and Regals sports while building community among Cal Lutheran backers.
"Cal Lu Athletics has a mindset - always be improving," Davis said. "We see it in our coaches every day, in their student-athlete care and interaction, their recruiting and their constant program enhancements. As an athletic administrative team, we would be remiss to not do everything in our power to keep up with them and work constantly to support the coaches and student-athletes at an elite level."
Plus, he added: "Who doesn't enjoy high-quality wine, beer, food, music and fellowship?"
