Wine & Dine is one of the Chris Klug Foundation's annual awareness and fundraising events. It is a celebration of the gift of life with the recipients of the CKF Awards, along with exquisite wine and decadent food in a beautiful setting at the Snowmass Club. Wine & Dine helps CKF continue to educate and inspire individuals to register as organ, eye, and tissue donors, and to eliminate the wait for a transplant.
Join CKF in celebrating and honoring their CKF Award Winners as they accept their awards and share their donation, transplantation, and caregiving journeys. Attendees enjoy a champagne toast, open bar, 3-course meal, and dessert bar. To cap off the night, all are invited to dance the night away with a live band.
Thank you to Wine & Dine's Gold Level Title Sponsors, The Hoffberger Family!

Get ready for Zumba with Andrea Orrego
Zumba is a global dance phenomenon that invites the body and spirit into a state of pure, rhythmic connection. Originally inspired by the vibrant dance traditions of Latin America — Salsa, Cumbia, Merengue, and Reggaeton — Zumba has since grown into a dynamic fusion of world rhythms, blending Afrobeat, Bollywood, Bhangra, Belly Dance, Hip Hop, and more into an electrifying celebration of movement.
At its core, Zumba is about intuitive dance expression. Rather than focusing on strict choreography or technical breakdowns, the structure of a Zumba class mirrors the architecture of music itself — simple, repeatable patterns tied to the chorus, verses, and bridges of each song. This approach allows dancers to anticipate transitions naturally, freeing them from the constraints of counting steps and encouraging a deeper, more instinctive relationship with rhythm.
Zumba invites a profound reconnection to the joy of embodied movement: a space where strength meets sensuality, sweat becomes celebration, and music becomes a global language that transcends borders.For seasoned dancers, Zumba offers a refreshing invitation to return to the essence of why we dance — not for perfection, but for expression, connection, and exhilaration. It is a journey through cultures, rhythms, and emotions, all channeled through the most ancient instrument we possess: our own bodies.
All dance levels welcome!
