Who doesn’t dream of living in a neighbourhood, where streets are paved with….hold on, that’s not what this Million Dollar Neighbourhood is about! In case you haven’t heard, the community of Aldergrove, located in Langley, BC, was selected to participate in a new reality show, Million Dollar Neighbourhood. The show is produced by Vancouver-based Force Four Entertainment and the Canadian arm of Oprah Winfrey’s television network. One hundred Aldergrove families have been selected and are now in week four of a 10 week challenge to raise their community’s net worth by one million dollars.

As part of program, each week the Million Dollar Neighbourhood families are given an assignment – last week, get eight people jobs. This week, host a five star wine and dine event with just a week to plan it!

The details are coming together and the public have the opportunity to participate. Guests to the five star wine and dine event aptly named Once in a Million Autumn Wine & Dine features award winning Chef Anthony Sedlak who will prepare and serve a fall-inspired menu at the beautiful Mt. Lehman Winery during this truly Fraser Valley inspired event. The event takes place this Sunday, October 2nd and starts at Noon. Tickets are limited and available for $250; the cost of the ticket goes towards the goal of raising the community’s net worth by one million dollars.

This is one wine and dine event that is sure to deliver an entertainment punch as the families from the Million Dollar Neighbourhood project are your hosts, organizers and master minds behind the event that was born, raised and executed in under a week.
