WDIY’S  ONE ALE OF A NIGHT Goes Vintage! - Saturday, November 1st

More than just a wine-tasting, more than just a fund-raising event.

This year WDIY 88.1’s One Ale of A Night provides the attendee with a night of wine and beer tasting, dinner and dancing, as well as an opportunity to bid on some fabulous prizes including a week in an apartment in Paris, a Polk Digital Entertainment System, a Royal Caribbean cruise, an Olympus digital camera, artwork, jewelry, the list goes on and on!

The evening will start with butlered and tabled hors d’oeuvres and move on to a scrumptious dinner tasting of made-to-order pastas, prime rib and a mashed potato bar!  All of these paired with fabulous wines and beers.  Flaming desserts are served as the band, SLICKED UP 9’S, begins to play and the silent auction ends.  You can dance til midnight to their swing era sounds.

The theme is “vintage” and we encourage you to come in costume if you so choose.  If not, dressier attire (although not black tie) is encouraged.  Business casual is fine as well.

All of this for only $70 per person!  Reservations are still available and can be made by calling 610-366-9220.  The deadline is Monday, October 27!

Tell your friends, and bring a friend….We hope to see you there!

Following Charles will be the great, Toby Walker for what will be a night of the "Real Deal" Blues

POCONOTES  .... April 2008 - I received an email from Poconotes about a special fund-raising event they are holding. Below is the introduction and a link to their press release. Tickets are available online or onsite at the event. Thank you in advance for your support ......  GW (webmaster)

A New Year's Eve birthday celebration suddenly turned tragic and halted a local Northeastern Pennsylvania musician's career at the precipice of a potential breakthrough.  With months of physical therapy behind him and, possibly, years more ahead of him, he's ready to take the stage at the Waverly Community House on April 12, 2008, to launch PocoNotes' four-event acoustic storytelling series, "Hear 'Em at The Comm."
