St. Rose Hospital Foundation's 2nd Annual Wine, Women & Shoes

Berkeley, CA, April 02, 2010 --(PR.com)-- www.winewomenandshoes.com/strose - St. Rose Hospital Foundation’s Second Annual Wine Women & Shoes will unfold at Berkeley’s Claremont Hotel Club &Spa with a stylish new addition… a Fashion Show. Featuring some of Napa and Livermore Valley’s top varietals and vintages accompanied by delectable hors d’oeuvres offered by the Claremont, this event will help you pair the perfect wine with your favorite shoes in an upscale and elegant atmosphere. Last year, over 350 guests attended the event, and raised over $58,000 for St. Rose Hospital’s Women’s and Children’s services.

“Anyone who has a passion for fashion and a love for wine must definitely attend. It is the type of event that brings it all together- wonderful women, style, a great venue and a noble cause” said Pamela Russo, Executive Director of the St. Rose Hospital Foundation. This year, St. Rose Hospital Foundation’s Wine Women & Shoes will coincide with the 2010 Phil Hellmuth Celebrity Poker Tournament starting at 8:00 pm at the Claremont. Guests who register early for the event will receive a complimentary spectator admission ticket to the Celebrity Poker Tournament as well as 2 weekly passes to the Professional Golf Tournament hosted April 14-18 2010 at TPC San Francisco Bay at Stonebrae. CBS 5’s Eye on the Bay will be following this event throughout the evening and will broadcast a segment in one of their upcoming show. Also on hand will be the infamous Miss Chiquita who will change her shoes for charity for the first time ever.

Adding to the star power – the always lovely, fashion-forward thinking Miss Chiquita will be on hand for the event. In keeping with the spirit of the evening, Miss Chiquita will have a first-ever wardrobe change for charity. Italian shoe designer Angelo Anastasio is creating a unique designer shoe for Miss Chiquita to wear and it will be unveiled that evening.

“Miss Chiquita is the essence of Chiquita and we couldn’t be happier to have her present among these dynamic women as we partner with St. Rose Hospital Foundation to sponsor this event,” said Brian Kocher, president, Chiquita Fresh North America. “The privilege is ours to be part of an event that will make a significant contribution to helping children in the community. Our passion is to empower people to maintain healthy lifestyles and this core purpose is shared by our friends at St. Rose.”
