The 2026 Wine in the Pines was a huge success. Thanks to all the donors and guests who helped Crown King Realty raise over $8,400 for CKFD Auxiliary. All funds raised will remain in our community and serve to benefit our local fire department. Many thanks to Lorrie & Casey Wyatt, owners of the Historic Crown King Saloon, for hosting our event again this year. Lorrie and Casey served wonderful appetizers, dinner and desserts. The tunes kept spinning thanks to professional DJ and former firefighter, Optimum Entertainment, keeping the evening rocking through the night. This year we had some especially nice donations for the silent auction. Thanks to all the donors!
The most memorable donation was an oversized firepit shaped like a wine glass donated by local artist, Ryan Marciniak. As you may expect, this was a popular item and created quite the buzz at the silent auction table.
Thanks also to Chief Smith and all the firefighters who came to Crown King to help support our event. It was nice to share the evening with our local heroes!
