Rotary Club of Napa Puts Service into Action
Supporting Enchanted Hills Cycle for Sight
Continuing its tradition of hands-on service, the Rotary Club of Napa will support the Cycle for Sight fundraiser benefiting Enchanted Hills Camp for the Blind, a program of the Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired.
The event will take place on Saturday, April 18, in Yountville and features a powerful and inspiring format: tandem bicycle teams made up of one sighted rider and one blind or visually impaired rider.
Rotary members will assist with event logistics, parking coordination, and a community barbecue, helping ensure a seamless and welcoming experience for participants.

“This event is incredibly special because it brings people together in such a meaningful way,” said DeVincenzi.“The goal is to have 20 tandem teams ride approximately 25 miles, each raising $1,000 or more. Every dollar raised goes directly to supporting camp scholarships for Enchanted Hills. We are proud to support an initiative that changes lives.”
Tony Fletcher, representing Enchanted Hills, added:“Cycle for Sight is more than a ride—it’s an opportunity to empower individuals who are blind or visually impaired to experience independence, connection, and adventure. The support from the Rotary Club of Napa helps make this event possible and ensures that more campers can benefit from the life-changing programs at Enchanted Hills.”
