The 14th annual Educational Taste of Excellence: Wine Tasting, Spirits & Jazz event will be held on Saturday, March 7, 2009 at the Paris Las vegas, Champagne Ballroom from 6-10 pm.

The Cultural Diversity Foundation (CDF) and the Cultural Diversity Scholarship Committee have planned this multicultural gala as a way to raise funding to help students achieve their educational goals and to recognize scholarship recipients for their academic achievement in higher education.

From 1996 to 2008, the fundraiser has grossed over $725,000 in revenue and in-kind services and awarded over 90 scholarships ranging from $500 to $4000. The 13th annual scholarship benefit held in March 2008 raised over $145,000 in revenue and in-kind services. 
In addition, we had over 85 donors participate in the event.
Partial fundraiser proceeds were used to fund eight scholarships sponsored by the CDF and the Cultural Diversity Scholarship Committee  for college bound
students to attend the College of Southern Nevada, and a college of their choice.

Fundraiser Highlights
Wine Tasting: Guests will be dressed in understated elegant evening attire while sampling over 110 domestic and imported wines from over 25 wineries

Art display: A variety of artwork from nationally and internationally known artists will be displayed at the event.

Live and Silent Auction: Guests will be given the opportunity to bid on items donated by various hotels & casinos, airlines, restaurants, golf and ski resorts, etc.

Live Jazz: Guests will be entertained by live jazz artists

Hors D’oeuvres: Guests will enjoy a cornucopia of hors d’oeuvres
and cheeses that compliment the wines.

At the Springs Preserve Thursday, March 5 “Las Vegas Families” will share their experiences of our early community. Far from the bright neon spotlight, meet the families who played key roles in helping Las Vegas form and mature as a community.  Families such as the Fongs, the Tomiyasus and many others were instrumental in helping Las Vegas grow into more than just a railroad town. Learn about these families’ contributions as well as something equally important – their legacies – at this program made possible in part by a grant from Nevada Humanities, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Tickets are $12 for non-members, $10 for members, $6.50 for children. The event will run from 7 PM – 8:30 PM.

Scheduled to appear are Paul Carson, noted Las Vegas Historian, Bill Gildner, 3rd Generation Native and Las Vegas Valley High Graduate, class of 1941, June Eddins, Native and Longtime Las Vegas Resident since 1930. Other participants to be announced

The Springs Preserve is located at 333 S. Valley View Blvd. (At Meadows Lane, between Alta Drive and US 95)

For more information or to reserve your space for the event, call 822-7786.  Advanced ticket purchase required – space is limited.
