Summer Wine Festival

Save the date: 7th Annual Summer Wine Festival

Sunday, August 14, 2011

 

On Sunday, August 15, more than 400 Saint Mary's College alumni and friends gathered in the Soda Center on campus for the 6th Annual Summer Wine Festival benefitting the Alumni Lasallian Scholarship.

 

Thirty-three wineries, many of them members of the Gaels in Wine alumni group, shared their wonderful wines with attendees. In addition to wine, guests were treated to samples from a brewery and a handful of food vendors. The $13,000 raised from event proceeds, including auction item sales, will support the Alumni Lasallian Scholarship.
