Chers Consoeurs et Confrères,
We are excited to invite you to this year's Bastille Day Pique-Nique!
This summer, we will be returning to the beautiful Wee Burn Country Club. Over the years, we have shared many memorable events at the club, and we are delighted to gather there once again. Weather permitting, we will be seated on the terrace; should the weather not cooperate, we will dine indoors in the club's dining room.
Our host, John Bartlett, together with the Dinner Committee and Executive Chef Michael Mignano, has created a wonderful buffet menu that is sure to pair beautifully with your favorite white and red Burgundies.
As in years past, this is a Bring Your Own Wine (BYO) event. We will serve only reception wines from our cellar; no wines from the cellar will be served during lunch. Therefore, members are asked to bring sufficient white and red Burgundy for themselves and their guests.
As always with our BYO events, we encourage everyone to share their wines with fellow members and guests. This spirit of generosity and camaraderie is what makes these gatherings so special.
As a friendly reminder, we are guests of John Bartlett and the Wee Burn Country Club. We kindly ask that you respect the club's policies and help us show our appreciation for John's generous hospitality.
We look forward to celebrating Bastille Day with you and sharing an afternoon of great food and exceptional wines.
