Wine Walk to Support One Truckee River

RENO, Nev., April 1, 2019 (Newswire.com) - Help support One Truckee River and the Reno Riverwalk District during the Reno Wine Walk, on Saturday, May 18, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., a perfect occasion to show your appreciation for community, and wine.

It’s not only the love of your favorite red or white wine worth celebrating this May, but it’s also a day to show your support for your favorite charity. Each month portions of the proceeds for the Reno Wine Walk benefit local charitable organizations. In over eight years the event organizers have donated more than $103,500 to local non-profits.

This May the Riverwalk District’s monthly event will be supporting One Truckee River (OTR). The Truckee River is a complex and vital stream of water that flows from Lake Tahoe in California into Nevada and through the Truckee Meadows, crossing the boundaries of Reno, Sparks and Washoe County before completing its journey at Pyramid Lake.

OTR works to implement the One Truckee River Management Plan. Nevada Land Trust and Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful act as lead agencies in collaboration with the larger One Truckee River stakeholder group to execute the management plan.

The Wine Walk is a monthly event held on the third Saturday where you purchase a decorative wine glass for a $20 wine-tasting fee. With wine glass in hand and a valid photo ID, you’ll receive an ID bracelet, which allows you to sample wine at any of the twenty-plus participating merchant locations. Many of the businesses hand paint each individual wine glass, which attendees get to take home. At the end of the event, attendees enter to win over $800 in gift cards from all the participating merchants during a 5 p.m. raffle.
