Loomis Community Preschool (LCP) is organizing a community dinner at Casque Winery in Loomis on May 2nd.  The dinner, titled Bounty of Placer County, puts an emphasis on all things local.  It will feature food by local caterer Gourmet Garage, wine by Casque Winery, beer by local breweries, and music by a local jazz band.  The main event of the night will be a silent auction celebrating the work and goods of local artists and businesses.  The dinner is open to the public, and our hope is that it will become an annual community event.

Loomis Community Preschool (LCP) is a non-profit, co-op preschool that has served thousands of families in Placer County throughout its 40 years of service.  Funds earned at Bounty of Placer County will finance scholarships for families in need as well as supplies for curriculum development.
