Don’t forget to sign up for the wine tasting benefiting the Krystal Pepper Memorial Scholarship. It’s Sept 11, 6-8 pm at the Party Source. Pre-registration only. Sign up here.
This week, the wine scene picks back up a little, just as your kids are heading back to school.
Tonite and tomorrow is the Brew-Ha-Ha at Sawyer Point, with over 70 different types of beer available by the sample or by the glass. I’ve always thought Brew-Ha-Ha was one of the most creative ideas, and names, for an event.
Also this week are a couple wine dinners, two by Little Sonoma and one at Eddie Merlot’s. This weekend is also jam-packed with events.
For information on what’s going on in Dayton, you can refer to Mark’s blog at Uncorked.
Tell the retailers we sent you, and have a great weekend!
