California Gold Staff Covid-19 Relief Fund

Hello to all of our beloved California Gold patrons and to our Marin community, we are trying to raise funds for our staff and business during these unprecedented times. As you know we have had to shutter our doors due to the Covid-19 pandemic sheltering mandate, putting our staff in a position to not be able to work. The hospitality industry as a whole is suffering and many businesses will not be able to reopen their doors after all the smoke clears.  We are asking for any financial help that you are able to give to help get us through these difficult times. 50% of these relief funds will go directly to our staff to help cover their living expenses and the other 50% will go towards business expenses to ensure we can open our doors again as soon as possible. We will donate funds to our staff first to make sure they have support.

For anyone who donates $500 or more, we will offer a 2-hour private cocktail class taught by Isaac Shumway for up to 5 guests. For every $100 above the $500 donation, you can add one person, up to 10 people max per class. We will set a mutually agreeable date when we can all safely gather again.

If you are interested in the California Beverage Academy cocktail classes and are able to donate $500 or more please email us at [email redacted]  to schedule a date and go over event details. We would also be able to offer a Beer 101, American Whiskey 101, Scotch 101, Mezcal 101, Etc. Please let us know what interests you and we can customize any of these classes.
In this class, we will cover cocktail history, current drinking culture, cocktail techniques, tools, and ingredients. We will make 3 classic cocktails throughout the class, and enjoy the cocktails while we learn. You will get a print out of these recipes and a drink on us once California Gold reopens its doors. 

Thank you from all the staff at California Gold, we look forward to serving you again.

Cheers,
Isaac, Rhia, Jordan, Drew, Nora, Caitlin, Luis, Manny, David, Nikalet, and Victor.
