Down on the Farm!

Perhaps it was more “out” on the farm, like way out!  The event was held at the beautiful Raspberry Acres Winery (724) 459-0611 250 Clawson Rd Blairsville, PA 15717.  To paraphrase Chico Escuela from the old Saturday Night Live, the AWS Annual Summer Picnic was “berry, berry” good!  It was the traditional three: Good Wine – Good Food – Good Friends.
The winery was open for tastings, and the wine poured freely at the picnic.  With the theme being “Down on the Farm”, the wines kept to that idea.  We had “Goats Do Roam”, “Rex Goliath”, “Dancing Bull”, etc. (get it?)
The food, provided by Five Star Catering’s Mike, Tammy and Gina, was fantastic, and the appetizers and desserts, provided by the members, were outstanding!  It still amazes me how many multi-talented folk we have in our group.  There were two tables full of appetizers and an equal amount of dessert items.
As a combined picnic, we had the chance to socialize with members of all three chapters, and next summer, we’ll add a fourth with the Erie group planning to join us.  We look forward to that!

Many thanks go to Rich and Leeanna Ryba for the work that they put in to ensure that this event was a success.  These things don’t happen all by themselves, and we really appreciate the dedication involved.  If you missed this one, you missed a good ‘un!
