Wine tasting benefits
NKF-MD
The NKF-MD was the lucky beneficiary of a special
event at the James Joyce Pub on February 28. About 60
people participated in a wine tasting to help
the restaurant's management make selections for its
spring menu.
At left, Craig Howard, a sales
representative with Reliable Churchill liquor
distributors, discusses with guests the wines he is
pouring. Proceeds from the event, totaling $500, have
been donated to the National Kidney Foundation of
Maryland. Thanks to board member Zeke Ayele and friends
for coming out and enjoying the
event! |
