West Covina Rose Float Foundation Hosts Successful Fourth Annual 'Evening of Wine and Roses'
WEST COVINA, CA - The West Covina Rose Float Foundation held its fourth annual "Evening of Wine & Roses" fundraiser on Saturday, June 21, 2008, at Heritage Park in West Covina.

The celebration included fine wines from Toogood Estate Winery in El Dorado County, entertainment by "Cold Duck", as well a lavish sit down dinner prepared by Executive Chef Brian, a graduate from the California Culinary Academy/Le Cordon Bleu of San Francisco.

Scholarships were awarded to local students Tara Dabuni, South Hills High School; Brooke Miano-Poillucci, Glendora High School; and Diane Nguyen, West Covina High School.

The evening was capped off by the unveiling of the 2009 rendering of the City's entry in the Rose Parade. Titled "Hooray for Hollywood," this year's float will pay homage to many of the great films that once graced the silver screen.



The West Covina Rose Float Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, collaborates with various community leaders and organizations to provide mentoring, educational and hands-on opportunities to benefit youth throughout the year.
