We would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to Tony and Nanci Meyer and Bill and Susan Dalton for creating an incredible array of exciting foods for our annual wine tasting event. Special thanks to Tony Meyer who took time off from his duties as a new father to cook for three days! Many thanks to the other members of the WYS who helped in the kitchen, and the WYS staff who enabled the event to run so smoothly. Joan & Neal Kelly and Eileen & Jim Wooden
