Taste of the Triangle 2011 - A Royal Event

EdUCate! would like to thank everyone who attended or supported the 17th Annual Taste of the Triangle on April 29th. Over 400 guests attended the event. Chefs Bernard Guillas and Paul McCabe treated VIP guests to a wonderful cooking demo, with special food and wine tastings. Standley Middle School musicians and Phillip Marcus’s Classic Jazz Trio kept them serenaded.

Net proceeds from the event were $58,000. Thank you to all of our auction donors and bidders, and all who made cash donations or sponsored teachers to attend.

UCHS alumna Katie (Anderson) DiSimone photographed the event. You can view the entire gallery, and order photographs, through her website. Click here to visit the complete gallery!

Oktoberfest 2010 was a terrific success. The University City community obviously was ready for a party, and EdUCate’s wonderful sponsors were ready to help us throw one. Our thanks to everyone who donated, volunteered, performed or attended. We hope you had as much fun as we did!

Standley Park was filled with families enjoying games and contests. High school students volunteered to run the kiddie games, and to help with set up and break down. Retired folks came out to listen to some good music and grab a bratwurst or pretzel. Very special keg soft drinks were served, and samples of award-winning San Diego County microbrews were available in our Beer Garden. Standley Park and Rec staff were our incredible co-hosts. SDPD, SDFD and the ABC helped us conform to all the regulatory requirements.

The event’s net proceeds were over ten thousand dollars, all of which will go directly into UC classrooms this year. We also garnered over five thousand dollars in Dollar A Day donations. Thank you!! Perhaps best of all, we introduced lots of our school families to EdUCate, and involved a lot of young parent volunteers. The organization will be going strong for years with their enthusiastic support.
