ROTARY FUNDRAISING PROJECT: Wine Fest
Organized by Lisa Smith, Wine Fest raises funds for Rotary designated charities by hosting an evening event involving wine tasting. Wine vendors would set up stalls to promote their wine and liquor products. Running for a number of years circa. 2009, the event was of great success at the Museum of Industry in Stellarton.
The project was revived in 2018 after a long hiatus, hosted by Summer Street Industries. Wine Fest is a good fundraiser to attract the more well-heeled attendee. With a wide selection of wines and music, Wine Fest has become a signature Rotary Club of New Glasgow event.
