paso robles rotary winemakers' coockoffPaso Robles, CA, Mar. 26, 2013 – The Paso Robles Rotary will again bring over 30 Paso Robles winemakers together to compete to see who is the best chef, and organizers expect the tickets to sell out fast.

The 15th Annual Winemakers’ Cookoff will be held Aug. 10 from 6 p.m.-9 p.m. at the Paso Robles Event Center. Organizers are limiting attendance to just 1,200 tickets. Tickets are $75 and go on sale at pasorobleswinemakerscookoff.eventbrite.com at midnight on April 7, 2013.

“The Paso Robles Winemakers’ Cookoff has become one of Paso Robles’ most-popular wine, food and music events,” says event co-chairperson Bob Fonarow. “Participating wineries pair their grilled culinary creations with their finest wines and compete for both Judges’ Choice and People’s Choice awards the day of the event. We are expecting tickets to sell out fast.”

All proceeds from the event benefit local high school scholarships. Thanks to the event, The Paso Robles Rotary contributed $30,000 to Paso Robles High School scholarships last year. Since 1999, the Rotary Club has created a perpetual fund of more than $400,000 called the Harlow Ford Scholarship Fund. IQMS is returning as the title sponsor of the event.

“The IQMS sponsorship of the Rotary event underscores our company’s commitment toward the education and support of our local youth,” said Randy Flamm, President and C.E.O. of IQMS. “As we continue to prosper here, our involvement in helping to further the goal of an event like the Cookoff is one way of giving back.”
