Thank You to the Valley Animal Center and Twin Pomegranates Wine for a Fantastic “Summer Getaway”

This July, Fresno Women’s Network members escaped the heat to hang out with some cool cats and dogs at the Valley Animal Center, a no-kill shelter for dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens. As a part of the Fresno Women’s Network, the organization hosted a mixer to allow guests to tour the shelter, meet the adorable adoptables, and taste some fantastic wines from their friends at Twin Pomegranates Wine!

Nick and Brian Davis, Owners of Twin Pomegranates Wine, poured three of their favorite wines, including their popular sparkling pomegranate wine. It was a huge hit with the mixer guests, and a wonderful accompaniment to the cheese, crackers, and snacks at the mixer.

At the event, members also had the opportunity to participate in a fundraiser raffle to raise funds for the Fresno Women’s Network “Public Relations” Committee. A grand prize ticket package for the Dog Days of Summer Grizzlies Game on July 30^th was won by President Jennie Guadagno, who will be taking her grandson who is very excited!

Thank you to all of our other raffle prize donors: Karen Bowser of Creative Memories, Karen Sorensen of Mary Kay Cosmetics, Katrina Tonkogolosuk of Professional Print & Mail, Jennifer Wojtas of Orchard Park Premier Senior Living, Penny Childers of Chapel of Grace, Tori Forman of Fresno monsters Hockey, Devonne Etcheverry of Clear Channel Radio, Tim and Cindy Collier of Melalleuca, and Tina McCallister-Boothe of Girl Scouts Central California, South.

Additional thanks to Board Members Brittnee Gilles and Sandra Rodriguez Lucero for putting on a great event!
