Moët & Chandon Toast to the Trees
The celebration starts with you! Toast to the Trees returns for our Benefactors at the Garland level and above. This exclusive event is a summer celebration to kick-off the Festival of Trees and to thank our top supporters. "Toast" is sponsored by Moët & Chandon and will be at The Country Club of Sapphire Valley on Thursday, July 28. This VIP evening will include a champagne reception, a multi-course meal curated by Chef Dean Pugel, paired to perfection by acclaimed singer-songwriter Radney Foster. As a Grammy Award nominee, Foster is well-versed in performance, and is a compelling storyteller at heart–regardless of whether his stories are told through song, book, or theatre.
We don't want to give too much away, but this year's theme is Fire and Ice—from bubbles to caviar to ice sculptures and touches of fiery spice, we are bringing the heat! Join us as we toast to our generous donors and to a new year of supporting education and our community. Toast is an intimate affair and is limited to 100 guests.
RADNEY FOSTER
“For You To See The Stars” debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Southeastern Heat Seekers sales Chart for all genres.
“For You To See The Stars” was a Top 15 Americana airplay Album
After 30 years in the music business, Radney Foster knows his way around the stage. Whether slinging electric guitar in front of his full band, or picking an intimate acoustic show, Foster has an uncanny knack to connect with an audience. With numerous number one hits to choose from, his shows are a perfect blend of new treasures and beloved classics.
2018 saw Foster expand his storytelling to short fiction, and his shows often incorporate passages from his book—enthralling listeners from the stage of the Grand Ole Opry to Gruene Hall. “You just gotta know when to read, and when to just shut up and sing,” laughs Foster.
