21st annual Thompson ravioli dinner slated for March 31

LAKEPORT, Calif. – The 21st annual Friends of Mike Thompson Ravioli Dinner will take place on Saturday, March 31.

The dinner will be held from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St., Lakeport.

They will feature a fantastic tasting of wines from the Lake County Winegrape Growers. This is a wonderful opportunity for the Lake County wineries to show case the great wines coming from of Lake County.  

This event would not be complete without the music from the “Public Nuisance” band.

Free electronic recycling will be available at the event from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. It is time to clean out closets and get rid of the old cell phones, computers, fax machines and all outdated electronics.  

They are once again excited that the Computer Recycling Center will be giving four newly refurbished Intel Core Duo/Dual Core Windows Desktops, with new keyboard, cables and mouse, and refurbished LCD flat panel monitor to four nonprofit organizations.

Nonprofits that wish to apply for the computers must bring a letter on their organization’s letterhead, addressed to Steven Wyatt. The letter must include your 501C3 number, and a short explanation as to how the computer will be used by the organization.

The event organizers will continue efforts to create an event with zero waste by using corn starch and sugar cane plates, and utensils.

“Our goal is to have the waste generated by the event to be as close to 100 percent recyclable or reusable,” said Campaign Events Coordinator Mary Jane Bowker.  

Thompson was elected to Congress in 1998. Prior to that time, he represented Lake County for eight years in the California Senate

Tickets for the pasta dinner are $20 for adults, and $5 for children under 12 years.

Tickets can be purchased in advance or at the door the day of the event.
