Their retail shop will be open at the point of entry and will remain so until the Sheryl Crow
end of intermission. All wines are available for purchase, and for some of the white
wines they’ll provide an ice bucket for you to enjoy a chilled bottle of Fume Blanc,
Chardonnay or Rose along with 2 stemless wine glasses.
For dessert you’ll have the option of either Ben & Jerry’s and/or The Vintage
Sweet Shoppe! So they’ve really got you covered from start to finish.

The United Service Organizations, Inc. (USO) is a private, non-profit, non-gov-
ernmental agency that supports programs and services designed to meet the needs
of troops and their families, such as helping deal with a new deployment, transi-
tion from service, cope with physical or psychological wounds, the list goes on. All
around the world the USO lifts the spirits of America’s troops and their families.
Many may still recall Bob Hope’s USO Christmas specials on TV. “He would
broadcast every year on Christmas Day, a USO show from all over the world,” said
Maurice “Mo” Levich, Co-Chair of Rotary Lafayette. “He would skip every hour
to a different military base all across the world and he would put on a Christmas
show. That always touched me.” That’s what helped inspire Levich to contact Jeff
Herndon, the head of the USO for the Bay Area, to talk about putting on a public
event in Lafayette. “He was more than supportive.”
The first USO Show at the Lafayette Reservoir took place last year to a remark-
able turnout of about 800 people. “We expect a lot more this year,” said Levich.
5 Rotary clubs are involved with producing this event including Lafayette Rotary,
Lafayette Morning Rotary, Orinda Rotary, Moraga Rotary, and Rossmoor Rotary,
with Lafayette Rotary being the primary sponsor. It’s a free show, open to the pub-
lic, and probably one of the rarest events you’ll find this summer.
