EFESTE Announces 6th Annual Rockin’ Sips Fundraiser
Friday, February 13, 2015 at 6:00AM 
Help put an end to cancer and join us for EFESTE's 6th Annual Rockin’ Sips Fundraiser, Saturday, February 28th from 4-7pm!
What started as a heartbreaking event has inspired this annual celebration of wine and music. In 2006, winery owners Kevin and Angela Taylor learned that their young son Joe, grandson to ‘Big Papa’ Daniel Ferrelli and Helen Ferrelli, was diagnosed with Leukemia. He was 5 at the time. Happily, Joe is cancer free today. Through this experience, the family founded Rockin’ Sips to contribute to medical advances in the fight against cancer.
This year, it’s even more personal. Rockin' Sips, EFESTE’s annual fundraiser, will not only pay tribute to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) and Children's Hospital for their exceptional care of Joseph "Tough Guy" Taylor during his cancer treatment from 2006-2011, but also a very close friend of the winery, Ann Molitor. Ann is currently fighting Acute Lymhpoblastic Leukemia with great success.
Sip some of the hottest names in the Washington wine, beer, and cider industries including Avennia Winery, Force Majeure Vineyards, Obelisco Estate, Bellevue Brewing Company, and Schilling and Company Hard Cider. Savor slices of EFESTE's classic gourmet pizzas from the Wood Stone oven along with appetizers from Fez on Wheels and Green Apple Catering. Rock on to live music by cover band Soul Siren. Get lucky and win one of the amazing raffle prizes donated from local businesses. New this year, the release of the coveted Tough Guy wine will coincide with the Rockin’ Sips event. The wine, a tribute to Joe and his brush off attitude during treatment, also helps raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
Purchased your Advance tickets today and secure your Tough Guy wine (also benefiting LLS) in advance and pick it up at the event!
