SCCF is thrilled to announce that Bank of the Islands will once again be the presenting sponsor of its annual Wines in the Wild event, which will be held from 6:30-9 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 8.

 

“We truly appreciate Bank of the Islands’ lead sponsorship for more than a decade,” said event co-founder Linda Uhler. “This very special evening would not be nearly as successful or well embraced by the community without their generous, ongoing support.”

 

Wines in the Wild began in 2008 as not only an SCCF fundraiser but also as a “welcome back” gathering to kick off the island’s fall season. 

 

A name synonymous with island community banking since 1974, Bank of the Islands has earned a well-established appreciation as a philanthropic leader in the communities of Sanibel and Captiva.

 

During the highly anticipated event, guests will enjoy strolling the grounds of SCCF’s Bailey Homestead Preserve while sipping wines specially selected for the evening. Top local chefs will be serving food pairings to complement the wine tastings.
