The Le Vigne Winery (5115 Buena Vista Drive, Paso Robles) will be hosting a reading of the Polar Express in order to benefit Family Care Network (a local organization that serves children and families in our community that have been affected by trauma).

We are looking for volunteers in many areas. Sign up to help out at

- Event Assistant: Greets and welcomes guests to hand out tickets during each event. Assist with keeping food stocked and floats to assist with other tasks.
- Conductor Helper: Assists with ticket distribution and managing of children during the show.
- Actor/Actress: If your eyes twinkle and your nose is like cherry, we would love to use you for a special acting roll. We are looking for some jolly people to portray a very generous husband/wife team at the event. (note: having a beard white as snow and a stomach like a bowl full of jelly are not necessary for these special roles. Our costume and makeup specialists are really good).

Admission to participate in the event is $10 per child and $20 per adult for the general public. Funds raised through ticket sales benefit FCNI. The event is on December 14th and 21st and readings will be at 4pm, 5pm, 6pm, & 7pm. You can sign up for the event at
