Guests will have the opportunity to savor fine wines while being entertained by live music and indulge in a wine pull featuring magnificent selections. The evening will also feature a live auction filled with Amazing Experiences to bid on including:

  • A catered event, including beer and wine, by the Moveable Feast for up to 30 people

“Every year, the Savour the Journey event committee outdoes itself,” said Amy Cattell, development manager for The Arbor Hospice Foundation. “This year’s event promises to be exciting and elegant, while raising important funds that will allow Arbor Hospice to provide quality, compassionate end-of-life care to our patients and their families.”

Savour the Journey co-chairs, Heather Kaper and Dr. Rosalie Tocco-Bradley are the driving force behind the creativity, vision and imagination for this year’s event.

Limited individual tickets are available for $350 per person, and sponsorships begin at $3,000. To purchase Savour the Journey tickets or to become a sponsor, please contact Amy Cattell at (734) 794-5120 or [email protected].
