Festival of Parties
(May through August)

The Festival of Parties has always been our most successful fund raiser. A year-round schedule of private recitals with our guest artists, pre-concert buffets, fun-filled bridge parties, special events and tours. Now in its eighteenth year, these wonderful events sell out very quickly; so don't hesitate to send in your reservations. Contact the League.

Bridge Party
Join us for a fun day of social bridge with a yummy lunch, a unique fashion show from Ruth Bowden of Healdsburg and super prizes. Get together a foursome, or sign up by yourself and we’ll assign you to a table.

Hoedown at the Wild Oak Saddle Club
Back by popular demand! Come on all you urban cowboys and cowgirls, join us for an evening of Western Barbeque and Line Dancing at the charming Wild Oak Saddle Club. Cocktails overlooking the Wine Country Polo Field, a hearty BBQ with wine, and after dinner, professional caller and teacher Steve Minkin will teach the dances. And if you’d rather just watch the fun, that’s okay too.
