We are sad to announce the cancellation of the OWAIN GLYNDWR WINE AND CHEESE CELEBRATION
Although the date was changed from September to October in the hope that the threat posed by the COVID-19 Delta variant would be lower at that time, and that it could be held, at least in part, as an out door event, the reality of the situation argues against taking the risk.
The Covid/Delta numbers, although going down, are still a risk for us all…
Despite many activities could be held on the deck, many people would be coming into the house to use the bathroom, and the cheese and wine would be served inside the family room just off the deck.
It’s just an infection risk we are not willing to take for our families and especially our dear friends in the Welsh Society.
We all just want this pandemic to be over, and for us to be celebrating being together again. Fingers crossed for the Christmas Luncheon on December 4th. We have a wonderful program planned and we hope to see you there.
NOTE: for all members who for guests to accompany them, your payment will be refunded to you in full.
Wine and Welsh Cheese Tasting, plus Live Music, and the story of Owain Glyndwr
We are excited to hold our Owain Glyndwr celebration at the Glastonbury, CT home of Susan Davies Sit and Don Sit* in the form of an outdoor Wine & Welsh Cheese Tasting on the deck, with Welsh flags flying. We will share the story of Owain Glyndwr in both Welsh and English, while enjoying a variety of Welsh cheeses such as Snowdonia’s Black Bomber, Harlech, & Green Thunder, plus Collier’s, Caerphilly and more, complimented by crackers, fruit, breads, chutneys and, of course, a tasting of several international wines by South Side Wine-Spirit Shoppe, of Glastonbury, CT. Soft drinks and water also served. Street parking available. Parking help available. Any remaining whole cheeses will be available to purchase.
WILD NOTES will feature some Welsh tunes
Plus LIVE MUSIC from Wild Notes, an energetic and exuberant local, traditional acoustic group with roots in Celtic, French-Canadian, jazz and classical music, focusing on Welsh dances and songs. Their New England and Celtic reels, jigs, and hornpipes will delight everyone.
