The Education Department partnered with Marie’s Italian Deli to host a social evening for Club members, spouses and guests this month.

The tasting was led by Wendy Lamer of Prestige Wine. She presented 7 wines, all of which are available on the menu at Marie’s Italian Deli. Along with the tasting, Wendy described how each wine could be paired with certain foods to enhance the flavors of the meal.

Special thanks are due to Karen Smith (owner of Marie’s Italian Deli) and her staff for serving a beautiful selection of breads, antipasto, and pizzas, as well as Debbi Little and Kristin Joyner for organizing the event.

In addition to supporting students in our local schools and volunteering for programs at our local libraries, the Education Department also leads fun and educational activities for members.
