EVENTS

6:00 Meet & Greet

6:30 Meeting Starts

Due to popular request, we continue the tradition of hosting our annual WWS holiday event and business meeting on a Saturday evening in January. We hope you will join us!

This year’s Holiday event will feature a 3-course dinner with an “Old World, New World” wine theme—the perfect backdrop for celebrating our past year while looking toward our new one.  Our own wine director, Kat Morgan, will guide us through the evening's wine tastings, which will feature side-by-side comparisons of Old World and New World selections.

If you haven't been to one of our holiday events before, please know that we always try to "raise it up a notch" as we celebrate another successful year of enjoying new wines, new venues, and fun friendships. In addition to party favors and the “expanded” wine raffle for WWS members that we traditionally enjoy at this event (hint - expanded means that all members go home with a bottle of wine!), we will also have our charitable fundraiser that has been so successful the past few years. Very special gift baskets will be available as raffle prizes.  $5/ticket (Cash Only). All proceeds will be donated to charity.

Thanks to everyone who participated last year, we donated a total of $1,500 to 3 different charities! (Sneak peek - we will once again feature a bourbon-themed basket, which has been VERY popular in the past. So if you have a bourbon-loving friend, invite them to come!)

As always, this is a co-ed event and we encourage you to bring your significant other and/or your best friends to enjoy the evening’s festivities.

Dress Code: Cocktail or festive attire is encouraged but not required; please no jeans. 

PLEASE NOTE: We are a non-profit organization. The event registration fee for members is typically set at our "break-even" point. The fee covers our "all-inclusive" cost to the host for the event, including food, beverages, staff, taxes, gratuity/service charges, and PayPal fees.
