Our Wine Expert Howard Kesssel selected five KP wines (some in small bottles) through a local distributor from different wineries in various countries & then MPC packed them in a cardboard 5-pack along with Evaluation Forms which rated each wine on a
numerical score basis for taste & quality with space for comments etc . We sent out Invitations to all congregants & required RSVP's & pre-payment before event. As shown on enclosed Wine Tasting Flyer that we prepared, cost was $37.00 for (3) 375 ml & (2)187ml
different (both white & red) KP Wine Bottles. Howard talked about history of ea.wine (type, winery, country) & we collectively
tasted ea. wine while eliciting reactions or comments from participants on likes & dislikes. After 5 "tastes" (with some food)
many participants were thoroughly enjoying the event. ( I personally saved one unopened bottle for Seder night). This was a
very successful interactive event in a year of fewer events & even fewer fundraisers. Although not a huge fundraiser due to
minimal cost of sampler 5-pack of wine , we took reservations & payment form over 40 participants & we had a chance to interact with
each other in a social setting outside of our ongoing Zoom Ritual Services & Zoom weekly classes & a good time was had by all.
This event was pre-publicized with Ads in our Monthly Newsletter per attached & weekly digital "Insider Bulletin" as well as telephone & word of mouth. Its the kind of event that could be done in Spring & Fall before Holidays.
