We want to thank everyone who made it to the wine dinner on October 9. Despite the fact that we had almost 80 people join us, it was our most personal dinner yet. We were so pleased to have our special guests/hosts at the event: Silvio & LIvia Nuzzo and Giuseppe & Giuliana Lupo. We heard some great stories of the Smith Family in Italy, tasted some wonderful food, drank some amazing wine and even heard a song in Irish
