Category:Honor Your Loved OneCategory: | Permalink Published: Monday, October 12, 2009 In spring, 2009, Hospice of the Valleys (HOV) launched a fundraising opportunity called "Honor Your Mother" in commemoration of Mother's Day and Earth Day. Participants purchased rose bushes or trees in honor of their loved ones as a living legacy. HOV partnered with Oak Grove Center for Education Treatment and the Arts in Murrieta, as they were undergoing renovations and were in need of new landscaping.
On September 19, 2009, 27 rose bushes were 7 trees were planted at Oak Grove by volunteers from the United Way Day of Caring. The trees were planted to provide shade for the visitors parking area and a rose garden has been started at the front of the grounds. There is room for the rose garden to grow. For a donation of $50, a rose bush can be planted in memory of your loved one. Call 951-200-7800 for details.

Become a Sponsor | View the Flyer Dear Friends: The tastiest treat of autumn is approaching. "A Day of Wine and Chocolate" returns Sunday, September 27th from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Wilson Creek Winery. This year's event promises more scrumptious surprises with a chef demonstration by Executive Chef Clay Blake, appetizers, cheese samples, and of course the sweetest temptations from the finest chocolatiers and pastry chefs. To add to the sensation explosion, we've added a guest concert from Sligo Rags. This Orange County band has developed a sound that wins Irish, Bluegrass, Rock and Jazz fans, as they blend Irish jigs with Led Zeppelin, Celtic tunes with country, and a uniquely energized performance that packs the house. Our auction will offer a greater variety of items including signed sports memorabilia, signed artwork and art work from plein air artists painting on location at the winery.
