Kick off the holiday season with a festive evening of food and fine wines, at the beautiful Jonathan Edwards Winery in North Stonington, Conn.!
Advance purchase tickets are still available for “A Warm Winter’s Evening,” taking place this Thursday, Dec. 1, from 6:30 to 9:30 pm. Tickets, at $25, may be purchased online at www.lolsafegrad.com through Wednesday, Nov. 30. Same-day tickets (at $30) may be purchased at the door on Thursday, if still available.
Your ticket to “A Warm Winter’s Evening” includes a glass of Jonathan Edwards wine, soup and chowder tastings, delicious hors d’oeuvres, and sumptuous desserts.

Musical entertainment will be provided by Old Lyme’s Buffalo Jr.
The 2017 Safe Grad Party is a safe, substance-free celebration for LOLHS graduating seniors that takes place on graduation night at a surprise location.

I have to admit I am a bit uneasy with the idea of using alcohol as a way to raise money for a non-alcoholic event for school children.
