Wine Tasting To Benefit March For Babies

CARTERSVILLE, GA — Olive Tree & Vine will host a special wine tasting from 2-5 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 20 to benefit the Northwest Georgia Mountains March for Babies. For a suggested donation of $10, guests will enjoy a wine tasting as well as appetizers provided by Maine Street Coastal Cuisine.

All proceeds will be donated to the organization to support its mission to end prematurity and help more moms have healthy babies.

The 2018 Northwest Georgia Mountains Ambassador, Riley Duncan, and her family will be on hand at the event for a meet and greet. Riley, the 18 month old daughter of Brandon and Kristi Duncan, was born at 31 weeks, weighing only three pounds, ten ounces, and with serious complications requiring the support of a neonatal intensive care unit. Riley, baby sister to four older brothers ranging in age from 3 to 10 years old, is now thriving and her parents decided to share her story in an effort to help others.

“I want people to know there is someone who cares for your child and will be there to help in any way possible,” Kristi Duncan said.

Reservations are not required and the dress and atmosphere is casual. Olive Tree & Vine is located at 26 West Main Street in Cartersville. For more information, call 678-719-8518.
