SADLY, THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED

I want to thank you for your interest! As much as I am looking forward to our sweet event, I have made the hard decision to cancel the event. We work hard to keep our costs minimal but with the venue, cash prizes, wine and all the miscellaneous items it adds up quickly. We lost a major sponsor and unfortunately, we were unable to secure another for the event. And, to make matters worse, our ticket sales are lagging behind where they should be. As a small business, I simply can't afford to host the event without sponsorship dollars to cover the costs.

Thank you for your understanding and support. We'll do a better job for 2020 and keep you posted.

Happy holidays!

Kim
