Happy Spring!
We hope you’ll join us for our Spring Fling on Saturday, March 20, the first day of Spring, at high noon. This will be our first-ever virtual fundraiser, a live Cook-Along & Sip-Along. Award-winning chefs will prepare their signature crab cakes before your very eyes, allowing you to cook along or just enjoy the show from the comfort of your own home. Sipping local wines while you watch just makes it more fun and festive!

This link also offers the opportunity to bid on extraordinary Mendocino Wine & Get-Away packages, and to donate to MCC’s Fund-the-Future pledge drive, led by retired Sheriff and Auctioneer Extraordinaire, Tom Allman.
After a year of sheltering in place, we are all ready for a little getaway! We are offering two amazing escapes, right here in beautiful Mendocino County. One is a delightful stay at the storied, historic Little River Inn, complete with a delicious dinner from their on site restaurant and an ocean view golf game at the Inn’s Audubon-certified course. Also up for bid is a wine country fantasy come true at Handley Cellars, including a stay in the vineyard’s ranch house, a private winery tour, and a catered picnic from the culinary artists at The Bewildered Pig.
As for the wine, we have some truly remarkable local bottles up for bid. There’s something to please every palate and suit every occasion, from sparklers to party-size magnums. Cheers!
Our Fund-the-Future this year is to help us with the costs of COVID-19 vaccination and testing. Throughout the pandemic, MCC has been there for our community, providing testing and vaccines at no cost to residents. But the cost to MCC in staff time to prepare for, staff, and document these events is significant and ongoing. We are grateful for the support of our donors, sponsors, and community, and we are looking forward to sharing this very special event with you.
