Wine, Women and Shoes returns to Cd'A July 25

Looking for the perfect girls' night out and a chance to wear that sassy new little black dress? Wine, Women and Shoes is returning to the Coeur d'Alene Resort on Saturday, July 25. Now in its third year, this premier charity event benefits local at-risk children and their families. All proceeds help fund the northern Idaho programs of the Idaho Youth Ranch.

Highlights include wine tastings from 11 vintners, a marketplace featuring 10 designer boutiques, fashion show, and pampering by local, volunteer "Shoe Guys." The best part is the chance to sip, shop, and celebrate with other engaged, involved, and influential women, coming together to support a critical cause.

The Idaho Youth Ranch has been helping north Idaho kids make courageous transformations for more than 30 years. Earlier this year the agency announced it would be making changes to its services at Anchor House, transitioning from a residential substance abuse program to a family counseling and resource center that also offers adoption services and equine therapy.

"We anticipate that our new focus will allow us to triple the number of youth and families we can help," said Idaho Youth Ranch CEO Steve Woodworth. "And even better, we'll be able intervene earlier, before problems escalate out of control, while keeping our services affordable."

"Idaho Youth Ranch is thrilled to bring Wine, Women and Shoes back to Coeur d'Alene!" said Amy Evans, Director of Development. "We're especially honored to have Numerica Credit Union as this year's presenting sponsor."

The event will take place Saturday, July 25, from 6-9:30 p.m. at The Coeur d'Alene Resort. Tickets are available now at http://www.winewomenandshoes.com/iyrcda and an early-bird discount applies through July 15. To learn more about the Idaho Youth Ranch visit www.youthranch.org.
