We wanted to host an event that would draw entrepreneurs from around Silicon Valley, to help celebrate the success of MerchantCircle, the largest social network for local businesses. Our goal was to put together a different event, something that would stand out and also create a new tradition in Silicon Valley.
We kicked around a few ideas and finally settled on an afternoon of trap shooting and wine tasting. We felt this would make for a fun event, but also be a great way for local entrepreneurs to network with each other.
The 1st annual Shotguns & Chardonnay took place on Thursday, June 11, 2009 (12pm – 6pm). It started with an early afternoon of shooting trap at the Los Altos Rod & Gun Club, followed by wine tasting and a tour at Savannah Channelle Vineyards.
We want to thank everyone who came out for the event, your attendance built the foundation for an annual tradition in Silicon Valley.
