Package #2: Boone's Farm Legacy Wine
Package Value: Priceless
"Why is this bottle of Boone’s Farm Wild Mountain Wine so special at Wine in the Pine?
The story began in the 90’s.
This bottle of Boone's Farm Wild Mountain has been carried in the trunk of many of our donors as a generous Legacy gift to Ability Connection Colorado.
This all started at the Keystone ranch at one of the first Wine in the Pines dinners. That night, Mike Smith decided to auction off a bottle of Boone’s Farm.
We raised $200 and the bottle was shared between two people, each carrying it the trunk for 6 months.
A few years later, the marketing team from Gallo Wines, decided to get involved and helped us even more by bidding $7000.
During the next few years, several donors continued to support the program through winning the bid for the Boone’s Farm wine. A big highlight was when Ed Dauer, a long-time donor, and his DU friends bid it up and it went for over $10,000.
The Boone's Farm bottle of wine has helped raise thousands of dollars just as a memory and a foundation of what we started 38 years ago – what a gift from Wine in the Pines.
This story, like the Legacy of the 9 mothers who founded Ability Connection Colorado - AKA C Cerebral Palsy in 1946, inspires us to persist in supporting individuals and adults with special needs and other life challenges, so that they can be connected, accepted, and included within their communities.
Please help us continue this incredible Boone’s Farm legacy."
