For the Connecticut members: on October 2 CCFA will be hosting it's second annual "Taste of Autumn" wine tasting- more info here:

(PLEASE NOTE THE EVENT IS OCTOBER 2 NOT OCTOBER 24- THERE IS A TYPO ON THE DATE IN THIS POSTING)
It is more than just a wine tasting. I went last year and it was one of the better CCFA fundraiser events I have been to. There are wines, spirits, and liquers to be sampled, and event organizer Tom Sheehan emailed me that he is negotiating with a local microbrewery to bring in beers. They also have finger foods like fresh veggies and dips and cheeses and crackers so you can eat a bit with the liquors you are mixing.
$20 in advance or $25 at the door. This event is well worth it. Your donation to the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America is of course helping all of us and it's also tax deductible. I noticed CCFA is now emailing receipts when you donate.
