The BIG Night In Love and Life, One BIG Night Can Change Everything AUCTION CATALOG 2019 Because of you, One big night Changed everything Dear Friends Welcome to our 8th annual The BIG Night. We gather in celebration and support of the more than 3,000 children and youth enrolled and participating in the Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Helena and Calistoga in our St. Helena Clubhouse, St. Helena Teen Center, Calistoga Clubhouse, Calistoga Teen Center and the Howell Mountain School Site. We offer our heartfelt gratitude to our hosts and sponsors, the Trinchero Family, Trinchero Family Estates, our BIG Night chairs Bob Torres and Marianna Hawkins, and the many Board members, patrons, donors, volunteers, vintners, and staff members who have made this event possible. Since the last BIG Night- and with over one million raised, boy was last year BIG- we have taken our teens on over 10 different college tour trips, brought kids interested in space and science from all of our units to NASA Space Camp in Alabama, remodeled our outdated tech lab in St. Helena into a STEM Lab, expanded our Healthy Habits nutrition program across all sites, bought two brand new vans for trips, began boxing and fitness classes for our teens, increased funding for our art programs, brought in world-class musicians and music classes, partnered with health services to provide counseling for the kids who need us the most, and more. We take seriously your trust and support. We work tirelessly to make sure the funds we raise are spent wisely. We can only do what we do because of your support at The BIG Night. Enjoy the beautiful food and wine, and remember to give BIG from your heart. We rely every day on your generosity, and we also honor that generosity by ensuring every dollar is used to change the lives of as many Up Valley children as possible. On behalf of the kids we serve and our Board of Directors, THANK YOU for being here this evening. THANK YOU for your BIG heart on this BIG Night. There is more work to be done and together we can reach more kids than ever.
