Featuring celebrity chefs, one-on-one conversations with local sport’s legends, a private wine tasting with vintage wines, and a chance to escape to beautiful Wailea Beach. Here’s what’s waiting for you and your FAMILY…

SPORTS ICONS does it get any better?

Catch-up with BUSTER POSEY

What does it feel like to walk in the cleats of a 6× All-Star, 3× World Series champion, NL MVP, NL Rookie of the Year, Gold Glove Award winner, 4× Silver Slugger Award…? Phew… and that’s not all of it! Win the opportunity to ask our own SF Giant, Buster Posey, who his favorite pitcher is and why? Place the winning bid and zoom for 20 minutes with Buster and ask anything!

Chalk-talk with COACH KERR

It’s a toss-up really…which is more awesome: playing in and winning the NBA championship, or coaching the winning team? On your private 20 minute Zoom call with Golden State Warriors head coach, ask all your burning questions about coaching Steph Curry, playing for the Bulls, or ranking as the NBA’s all-time leader in three-point percentage. The lucky winner also gets a signed 2019-2020 Golden State Warriors team basketball.

Superstar huddle: JOE MONTANA, RONNIE LOTT, KEENA TURNER

We have a once in lifetime opportunity for you and 7 of your closest friends to chat it up with Joe Montana, Ronnie Lott, and Keena Turner (true Family House Team Mates.) Reminisce about past games highlights, talk current strategy and perspective or just ask them that question you never thought you could! This is the ultimate Touch Down for a 20 minute Zoom call. Plus surprise memorabilia from Joe, Ronnie, and Keena.

TOP CHEFS culinary inspiration!

Dishing with Chef CAT CORA

We could all use some culinary inspiration these days, but only one of us will be lucky enough to have a personal cooking consultation with award-winning chef Cat Cora. She made television history as the first female Iron Chef on Food Network’s Iron Chef America and is also the first female inducted into The American Academy of Chefs Culinary Hall of Fame. Enjoy a private 20 minute Zoom where you can “dish” about all things food and the lucky winner gets a signed Cat Cora cookbook!

Chef CHARLIE PALMER + KCBS Foodie Chap LIAM MAYCLEM step up your holiday game

On December 19th meet Foodie Chap Liam Mayclem for a glass of champagne at CUESA’S Ferry Plaza Farmers Market in San Francisco and pick up your gourmet CUESA produce box. Then on December 20th at 2pm, log in from the comfort of your home to prepare a holiday dish with renowned chef Charlie Palmer and Liam Mayclem. Chef Palmer was awarded James Beard Foundation’s “Best Chef in America 1997” and “Who’s Who of Food & Beverage in America 1998.”

MAUI escape to the beach life

Island Style at the FOUR SEASONS MAUI
Start your adventure in style with four first class round trip tickets on Alaska Airlines direct to Maui from San Francisco, an experience that reminded me of when I was still looking for things to do in Long Beach while roadtripping with my friends. Enjoy two Ocean-View Rooms for three nights at the Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea. Your group will be delighted with a private dinner overlooking the beach as only Four Seasons Maui can deliver. After a consultation with your chef, the culinary team will customize a six-course menu to delight your senses.

VINTAGE WINE + TASTING the best of the best

Case of Vintage Napa & Sonoma WINES + Private WINE TASTING

Enjoy a thoughtfully selected case of premium California wines. This stellar collection includes bottles from Anomaly Vineyards, Behrens & Hitchcock, Hamel Family Wines and Vineyard 29. The winning bidder will also receive a private tasting for four at Opus One.
