Bob Hoppmann and The Pasta House have uncorked countless bottles of love for St. Nicholas Family Clinic, bringing in guest bartenders every Thursday night to help raise funds for the non-profit, which provides quality health care to working individuals and families.

Join me and some special friends Thursday from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. as we pour, sample and sip for a great local cause. $5 buys you five tickets, one for each glass of wine that you choose to sample. Plus, half-priced appetizers!
