Committee Day April 2009

Our club had over 200 hours of community service among the members that attended. We donated $50 to Care and Share and $50 to the Salvation Army. Most of the meeting was reviewing Mary Baughmans fantastic video to promote our Adventures in friendship program. The ten minute video will be available soon on this page, our main page, our facebook page as well as the adventures in friendship site at www.adventuresinfriendship.org and the adventures in friendship facebook page and youtube. Stay tuned.

Papermoon Winery

On April 14th our speaker was Sheryl Cawrse of Papermoon Vineyards. She talked about how her family ended up in the wine business and about her family business history. The following is from their website: With the opening of Paper Moon Vineyards, the Cawrse family marks four generations of owning and operating a family business. After returning home from the war in 1946, Richard Sr. collaborated with his father, Walter, to buy a dairy business in Lorain, Ohio. Eastside Dairy, later known as Cloverdale Creamery, operated for 36 years with extensive home delivery and four neighborhood stores.

She was a very entertaining speaker and many of our members look forward to visiting and tasting the various wines.
