I believe this is the 3rd year for the Alexandria Seaport Foundation's Wine on the Water. It's a fun event that supports a great program. You can't beat spending a late spring evening along the Potomac with a glass of wine. From their e-invite:

Please join us on Saturday, June 9 in the Alexandria Seaport Foundation's workshop, on the Old Town Alexandria waterfront, for a festive wine tasting event sponsored by Grape + Bean. While sipping a variety of fabulous wines and tasting an array of cheeses and charcuterie, you can walk around the boat-building workshop. You'll see wooden boats being built by at-risk youth who are changing their lives through the Alexandria Seaport Foundation programs. The Potomac River dory boats have come a long way since you saw them last year. Christening of the WILLIAM HENRY July 21!

Tickets are $45, $55 after June 1. Available online at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/243578 or phone 1-800-838-3006.


Full disclosure, a good friend of mine is on their Board, but I would support the organization and recommend the event, even if that wasn't the case. Hope to see some of you there!

They should do a cigar event and call it Smoke On The Water.

Time again for the Alexandria Seaport Foundation's Wine on the Water - two weeks from today, June 1.

 

Details here; purchase tickets here.  

 

As usual, Grape + Bean are the generous sponsors of this year's event.  As I wrote above, it's hard to find a better way to spend a spring evening, and the ASF does great work with young people that need a second chance.

 

(maybe a kind moderator can update the thread title to reflect this year's date...thanks)
