Pasta Dinners

The StartJoin fellow runners and their families at the Pasta Dinner at the Napa Valley Marriott Hotel & Spa on Saturday, March 6. A variety of pastas (including vegetarian), salads, breads, Calistoga Mineral waters, and Napa Valley wines provided by the Silverado Trail Wineries Association will be served at two seatings. The first seating will be at 4:00 p.m. and the second at 6:30 p.m. The cost is $30 per person. A special program by our Marathon College faculty will be presented between dinner and dessert. Pasta Dinner tickets can be ordered with your entry or can be purchased at race registration over race weekend. Seats are limited to 180 people per seating, so order tickets early. Indicate on the entry form which seating you prefer; seatings cannot be changed on the day of the event. Marathon College speakers for the pasta feeds can be accessed under Marathon College on the website.
