Event serves as a fundraiser for The Arc Tampa Bay Foundation.

CLEARWATER, FL – People looking to enjoy the finer things in life will have a chance to do that and help The Arc Tampa Bay Foundation at the same time.

The Arc Tampa Bay Foundation will host Wings, Wheels & Wine, an evening of aircrafts and automobiles, at Clearwater Air Park, 1000 N. Hercules Ave, on Friday, June 10. Patrons of the fundraiser will have a chance to see a showcase of airplanes, jets and exotic cars, such as the Spyker C8 Laviolette LM85, while enjoying dinner from Clear Sky Beachside Café.

Aside from a full bar, there will also be a selection of craft beers from Dunedin House of Beer and Barley Mow Brewing, a fine wine bar by Bella Vino, live music by The Little Big Show, photo opportunities and an elaborate Chinese Raffle.

All proceeds from the event will directly benefit The Arc Tampa Bay, an organization that provides programs and services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

“We have planned an amazing evening with a fabulous backdrop of luxury automobiles and airplanes to raise funds for people with special needs served by The Arc Tampa Bay,” said event co-chairwomen Ellen Markham Pope.
