Packaging Education Fundraiser Set For July 16-18 In Napa Valley Join the Foundation for Packaging Education for the up- coming fundraising event, set to take place from July 16- 18 in the breathtaking Napa Valley. This event promises an exquisite blend of luxury, camaraderie, and support for a vital cause — workforce development for packaging professionals. July is the perfect time to be in Napa Valley, where AICC members, with their spouses and partners, can share experiences and enjoy the good company of fel- low industry professionals. Attendees will be hosted at the luxurious Silverado Resort, offering a serene and ele- gant backdrop for this special occasion. The event will kick off with a welcoming reception on the opening night, setting the stage for two days of un- paralleled activities and networking opportunities includ- ing golf and a hands-on cooking class at the nearby Culi- nary Institute of America. The evening will be highlighted by a dining experience aboard the famous Napa Valley Wine Train. The second day will feature exclusive wine tours, tastings, and a gourmet lunch at the renowned Chateau Montelena and Beringer vineyards.
