Queso Diego January 2014 Meeting Announcement

January marks Queso Diego’s third anniversary as a club.  To celebrate this occasion and the new year, we will be holding a cheese and champagne pairing celebration.  We will explore pairings with a variety of sparking wines.  The club will provide cheeses for the pairing and we are asking that attendees contribute a suggested minimum donation of $5 per person to help offset the cost of the sparkling wines that we will be purchasing.

In the past, the cheese and champagne celebration has been our highest attended meeting. To accommodate our available space this year, paid members will be given priority attendance, leaving a few spots for non-members. Please keep in mind that it’s possible we may have to cap off our headcount to ensure our available space is not compromised.

The meeting will be held at 6:30pm on Tues, January 21, at City Farmers Nursery (http://www.cityfarmersnursery.com).  Map of parking and meeting location: http://bit.ly/RtI8rX
