Rotary Wine Celebration - Grape Balls of Fire
The Wellington Rotary Wine Celebration Dinner is an annual event in support of various charitable causes in Prince Edward County. The evening includes tastings from various wineries and cheese makers in Prince Edward County. A silent and live auction is also featured, as well as a full course white-linen dinner accompanied by music entertainment. Each year focuses on a different theme, with guests encouraged to dress in period attire.
In 2015 the event was dubbed "Grape Gatsby", featuring music and attire of the roaring '20s. The evening was attended by over 85 patrons, and great fun was had by all. The event raised $8400 for the Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Fund.
For 2016, the event will be held on October 22nd, and themed "Grape Balls of Fire", featuring music and attire from the '50s. Proceeds from the evening will support the Storehouse Foodbank and the Wellington Community Gardens.
Tickets will be available at Nash's Home Hardware and McDougall's Insurance office on Main Street in Wellington, as well as from Wellington Rotary Members.
