6th Annual Spring Hospice Winemaker's Dinner & Auction
benefitting Finger Lakes Visiting Nurse Service/Ontario-Yates Hospice

Friday, May 1, 2009
starting at 6:00 pm
Esperanza Mansion - Bluff Point, NY

This festive event will include an excellent four course dinner, each course will be served with wine from local wineries.  The event will highlight a silent and live auction featuring a variety of original works by local artists, original glass artwork, one of a kind jewelry, wines, wall art, celebratory baskets and much more.  All proceeds raised at this event will benefit Ontario-Yates Hospice, a program of Finger Lakes Visiting Nurse Service.  Many times insurance does not cover the entire cost for care and our important fund-raising events help to bridge that gap.  Hospice is a philosophy of care for people who have made a conscious decision to focus on the quality of life during their final days and not to pursue curative treatment for a life-limiting illness.  Ontario-Yates Hospice’s holistic approach to care allows our team of clinicians and volunteers to meet the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of those in the program and their loved ones.  For information about this event, to donate an item for the auction or to purchase tickets, call Terry Freeman at 315-789-9821 ext. 4212.
