UNCORKED IN DADE CITY - An Adventure in Wine, Music, Food and Art Our Uncorked event was a huge success.  We have had great compliments from those who attended and many requests for repeat performances! A big thank you to our sponsors, wine consultant Eric Goltry, guest artists, musicians, our demonstration chef R. J. Webb, raffle team, and Uncorked Planning Team.  As you know this kind of event can only be accomplished when the whole club works together.  A special thank you to our circles that made delicious appetizers, decorated their gardens so beautifully, and worked so hard at the event to create a truly memorable experience for our guests.
