Tolland Education Foundation Wine and Beer Tasting a Huge Success

Tolland friends and community neighbors gathered together to enjoy an evening of wine and beer tasting, gourmet food and exciting auctions on Saturday, Nov. 15 at the Tolland Education Foundation’s eleventh annual event. Attended by about 100 people who bid generously on a wide array of silent and live auction items, the event raised approximately $12,000 that will be used to fund innovative educational grants in all of the Tolland public schools.

Special thanks to Abdul Fakhar of Village Spirits for carefully choosing and showcasing a broad selection of fine wines and beer.
