Every stride at "Walk Like MADD" in Temecula brings us closer to ending impaired driving, a public safety crisis that claimed 1,479 lives in California in 2022. On March 29, impaired driving survivors, victims’ families, law enforcement, and advocates will rally at Linfield Christian School for the "Walk Like MADD" 5K, a powerful event that brings the community together to raise money that directly funds MADD’s 24/7 free victim services. This isn’t just a walk—it’s a movement. With impaired driving fatalities surging 33% nationwide since 2019 and accounting for more than one-third of all traffic deaths in California-–this year’s "Walk Like MADD" is more critical than ever. Participants will share personal stories of loss, survival, and resilience—stories that underscore the toll of impaired driving and the urgency to act now. Funds raised from "Walk Like MADD" provide critical support for MADD’s free 24/7 victim services, including: - Assistance with crime victim compensation - Guidance through the criminal and civil justice systems - Court accompaniment for hearings and trials - Help with victim impact statements - Emotional support for victims and their loved ones - Connections to other victims and survivors with shared experiences - Referrals to additional resources and support groups Register MADD on Instagram and Facebook

Truchard Vineyards is a family-owned winery that has been a cornerstone of the Carneros region in Napa Valley for nearly 50 years. Founded by Tony and Jo Ann Truchard, the estate began as a vineyard dedicated to growing exceptional grapes and played a key role in pioneering viticulture in the region. In 1989, the Truchards established their own winery, crafting wines exclusively from their estate-grown fruit—an approach that reflects their deep connection to the land and dedication to quality winemaking. For this special evening, Anthony Truchard, General Manager of Truchard Vineyards, will guide us through a selection of the winery’s exquisite wines, each thoughtfully paired with a 5-course prix fixe dinner created by Executive Chef Matt Sramek. This immersive experience offers a rare opportunity to explore the harmony between exceptional food and wine while gaining insight into the passion and craftsmanship behind every bottle.
