Dine To Donate | Alamogordo

Benefit for Noisy Water Winery’s employees displaced by the fires in Lincoln and Otero Counties.

Join us in Alamogordo to help our friends in need during this difficult time.

100% of every purchase made will be donated directly to help the 60+ employees of Noisy Water Winery displaced by the fires in Lincoln and Otero Counties.

Time To Help

Our neighbors could use our help. Thousands in the Ruidoso, Alto, Ruidoso Downs, and Mescalero areas have had to flee, many with nowhere else to go.

There is an overwhelming uncertainty about when they will be able to return, or what they will return to.

We are thankful to those who have been able to provide an empty room, home, apartment, or safe place to sleep. We are proudly seeing friends, neighbors, family members, and total strangers gathering up anything they can to help. Sending money, food, water, and supplies to those who need it the most right now.

We struggled to figure out how best we could help. What could we do? Where is our help most needed?

We decided to open our doors at our nearby Alamogordo location for a busy Saturday, and gather every last cent collected that day and donate it. Open our doors up to bring people together for a good cause.

Every payment. All day. 100%.

While we realistically cannot raise enough money to help the thousands of people displaced by this tragic event, we thought we could help our fellow industry members who are struggling. Help those individuals who strive to do what they love every day, just like we do.

Over 60 employees of our fellow winemakers in Ruidoso have been displaced by the South Fork and Salt Fires. At least 20 have already lost their homes.

We know there are so many people that want to help but might not know how just yet. Or those who have been helping, but would like to do more. We invite you to gather with us.

Saturday, June 22nd | Open from 11am – 10pm

261 Panorama Blvd, Alamogordo, NM 88310 - Phone: 575-616-5595

EVENT ON FACEBOOK >>> https://fb.me/e/1DR58gHAz

We are also gathering monetary donations now through Saturday, June 22nd. So if you can’t make it to Alamogordo, get with us at one of our locations.

Sending continuing love and prayers to the Noisy Water Winery family, Jasper Riddle and family, The Village of Ruidoso, Ruidoso Downs, Alto, and the Mescalero Apache Reservation.

TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK 2024

It’s been said that teaching is the single most important profession, and we are inclined to agree. Teacher Appreciation Week will be celebrated at Lescombes Family Vineyards locations, from May 6-10. We will be honoring teachers from New Mexico that dine with us during this week with a $10 thank you card valid on their next visit with us. Educators can take advantage of this during the promotional period at our Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Alamogordo, Santa Fe, and Deming locations.

“It’s our annual tradition to take some time and let our community teachers know that we appreciate them and everything they do,” noted Director, Wayne Moore.

It’s not an easy job—with long hours, always changing standards and stressful evaluations. However educators all over the nation overcome these challenges and continue to make a difference in our young people’s lives.

“I remember arriving in New Mexico at eleven years old,” recollects Proprietor, Florent Lescombes. “I didn’t know a single bit of English—and there I was, enrolled in Mrs. Saunder’s fifth-grade class at Alameda Elementary. It was such a supportive environment, within months I was well on my way.”

The Lescombes family and team urge the community to take the time to thank teachers everywhere, whether during Teacher Appreciation Week or simply in daily life in your community.
