Friends, Neighbors and Wine Lovers,
 
Every year we've been in business (10), we've set aside 2 weekends during the year to help raise funds for our two favorite causes, The M.S. Society and Breast Cancer awareness and research.
 
This is the weekend, April 3rd & 4th, we've set aside for Breast Cancer!
 
We NEVER charge a fee for our wine tastings (unlike nearly all of our competitors), except when we try to raise money for these two causes, and this weekend we're asking for your kind participation.
 
To make it worth your effort to stop in, check out this line-up!
-12 WINES to try, ranging in price, from $10.99 to $45.99
-Plenty of food and snacks. 
-Raffle drawings for great prizes.
 
We'll have 3 wine tasting stations set up around the store with two of them being manned by very special guest pourers and one being manned by wine professionals, regional sales manager for the Austin Hope Winery, Ms. Macy Bires and from Premier Beverage, Mr. Mark LaRoche.
 
Here's the deal; 
TOMORROW---Friday, April 3rd, from 5 to 9, and Saturday, April 4th, from 1-5, we're asking for a minimum $10 donation (cash or check) to participate in this special wine tasting event. EVERY DOLLAR we collect will go to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer !
 
HOWEVER!!
For a $15 donation, you'll receive the latest edition of the much larger, super-deluxe, highly coveted, semi-rare, dishwasher safe, GENUINE faux crystal, 2009 Edition of Roget's Logo Wine Tasting Glass to add to your collection.
 
Remember, we'll be open till 9 P.M. on Friday evening, an hour later than usual to make sure everyone has a chance to attend.
