Thank you for your interest in joining the volunteer team for the 8th annual Park City Food & Wine Classic. Part of the Classic’s mission is to promote and develop an awareness and appreciation of food and wine in the beautiful city of Park City, all the while raising funds for a great non-profit beneficiary. You can help us complete our mission by volunteering for one or more shifts during the event, July 5 - 8, 2012.
Non-Profit Beneficiary
Five percent of all ticket sales as well as all proceeds from Thursday night’s Wine on the Mountain Kickoff Celebration blind auction and Saturday’s Toast of Park City silent auction will benefit the People’s Health Clinic. Founded in April of 1999, the People’s Health Clinic is a non-profit, primary care facility that provides high-quality medical services to the uninsured individuals and families in the area around Park City, Utah. PHC emphasizes health maintenance and disease prevention in all treatment programs.
