KEELS & WHEELS CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE<br />
HOSTS 9 TH ANNUAL UNCORKED<br />
Thursday, <strong>March</strong> 22, <strong>2018</strong>, 7-10 PM<br />
Bentley Showroom of Post Oak Motor Cars<br />
1530 West Loop South, Houston 77027<br />
Participating restaurants are assigned a classic automobile or vintage<br />
wooden boat. The chef of each restaurant then selects a specific wine<br />
that they believe matches the classic automobile or boat. Each chef then<br />
prepares a custom hors d’oeuvre that is paired with the wine to complete<br />
the epicurean experience for attendees to sample.<br />
The “Uncorked” event will also feature luxury items and experiences in<br />
the form of a live and silent auction. Auction Co-Chairs Patty Peeples<br />
Busmire and Karen Deguerin invite guests to bid on lavish packages<br />
including fine wines, spa getaways, hotel and resort stays, dinner certificates,<br />
autographed collectibles and much more. Proceeds from the<br />
event and both auctions benefit the Boys & Girls Harbor. This event is<br />
made possible with the support from sponsors City of Seabrook, Bay<br />
Area Regional Medical Center and MCM Worldwide.<br />
The Keels & Wheels Uncorked event was established in 2009 as a means<br />
of raising awareness for Keels & Wheels Concours d’Elegance, which<br />
will take place this year on May 5-6, <strong>2018</strong> at Lakewood Yacht Club in<br />
Seabrook, Texas. Keels & Wheels Uncorked takes place each <strong>March</strong> prior<br />
to the Spring showcase event and has become one of the major sources<br />
of funding for Boys & Girls Harbor. To date, Keels & Wheels has assisted<br />
in raising more than $1.7 million for its partnering charities.<br />
PRICE:<br />
$100 per person at the door • $75 per person in advance<br />
Tickets may be purchased online at keels-wheels.com or by calling<br />
