On January 17th from 2-4pm, Newcomers Club members will gather at the new shop in Punta Gorda: Coastal Expressions. $20 covers a wine tasting with 4 samples along with shared charcuterie boards. Non alcoholic drinks will be available for substitution, as well. In addition, the shop will be closed to the public, but open for Newcomers to shop for special gifts, home accents, and wine of course. Please register on our site and make arrangements to pay in advance by January 11. Checks to PGI Newcomers Club given to Donna at January 6th Happy Hour would be best. The registration site shows that you can pay at the event, but that's only because our software site isn't yet set up to take payments online. You truly need to pay in advance, but not through our site. Please make arrangements with Donna Lee (804-301-7800) to pay in advance, so your registration can be counted. While this event is going on, there will be a simultaneous event to watch NFL Play-Offs. Time and Location TBD. We may meet at a local bar, but if someone would like to host at their home, please speak up. Men and Women are welcome at both events.
