Russ’s Market Hosts Wine Fundraising Event

Russ’s Market, a banner of Lincoln, Neb.-based B&R Stores, will once again present the annual Lincoln Wine and Food Experience, a fundraising event that benefits the Lincoln Community Playhouse. The event, to be held Feb. 27, 2015, will feature about 90 booths offering a variety of international wines as well as fine cheeses, gourmet desserts and Nebraska beef.

Russ’s Market Catering will prepare a buffet for reserve room guests, including an exclusive selection of reserve wines. A Nebraska Room will feature wines and foods from Nebraska, and a Bubbly Room will offer a variety of sparkling wines.

The Lincoln Wine and Food Experience has raised more than $200,000 for the Playhouse since its inception six years ago and has a goal to raise $40,000 this year. Tickets for the event are on sale at all Russ’s Market locations in Lincoln.

“The Wine and Food Experience has become an event that Lincoln looks forward to every year,” said Pat Raybould, president of B&R Stores. “We’re glad that Russ’s Market can help the playhouse provide entertainment and education programs for our community.”
