Bookwalter award-winning wines, and an auction packed with Mariners gear, local and national sports items and wine lots from Washington and California elite producers.

At Fred Hutch interdisciplinary teams of world-renowned scientists seek new and innovative ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer, HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening diseases. Fred Hutch's pioneering work in bone marrow transplantation led to the development of immunotherapy, which harnesses the power of the immune system to treat cancer with minimal side effects. An independent, nonprofit research institute based in Seattle, Fred Hutch houses the nation's first and largest cancer prevention research program, as well as the clinical coordinating center of the Women's Health Initiative and the international headquarters of the HIV Vaccine Trials Network.

J. Bookwalter Winery has a rich history of producing some of Washington's finest wines through meticulous winemaking and exceptional vineyard sources. The winery, founded in 1983 by legendary grape grower Jerry Bookwalter, currently is owned and operated by Jerry's son John Bookwalter. The winery's tasting room in Richland includes a full-service restaurant, Fiction, and was named one of the best tasting rooms in the United States by Sunset magazine.

On behalf of Logan and Christie Morrison, thank you for your support. We look forward to seeing you June 21 at J. Bookwalter in Woodinville.
