with the wine will be tastes of cheeses and chocolates to complement each bottle,” said Davis, who noted that each bag will contain enough food samples and wine for four people to enjoy. Chocolates will be provided by Evans Candy. Club members sampled the items that were chosen to be included in the bag at an early January meeting. “We share the (tasting) responsibility,” noted Davis, who added that research and consultation with cheese purveyors was done for the commentary. Proceeds from the local Kiwanis Club’s events traditionally benefit various local organizations. “Everything we do is for the benefit of children,” said Davis.
