Historical society invites community to Wine Auction Saturday

LAKEPORT – Attention wine lovers and history buffs! The Lake County Historical Society wants you!


They invite the community to join them on Saturday, Sept. 19, at 5 p.m. for the 10th Annual Lake County Wine Auction, a gala benefit for the arts, health and community of Lake County.


This year the Lake County Wine Alliance is partnering with the Lake County Historical Society to help raise money towards the completion of the Ely Stage Stop and Country Museum restoration.


The building originally was a stop for the stagecoaches en route to the west shore of Clear Lake and is considered by some to be one of the oldest “stick-built” buildings in Lake County.


It was relocated to a new home at 9921 State Highway 281 (Soda Bay Road) on July 29, 2007.


Through the leadership of the county of Lake, the wraparound porch was completed this summer and Pacific Gas & Electric recently installed electricity. With the addition of the electricity, work will begin soon on the interior.


Meanwhile, the historical society plans to construct period barns to showcase its large collection of historic artifacts for both static and demonstration exhibits.


The Lake County Historical Society needs your donations and participation to finish the project, so they ask the community please join them at the Wine Auction.


For tickets go to www.winealliance.org , or call 1-866-279-WINE.
