Wednesday, July 31 - Distillery Tour and Tasting In 1997, Prichard’s Distillery opened in Kelso. Prichard's Distillery represents the first legal distillery to be built in Tennessee in nearly fifty years. Using some of the highest quality ingredients and the same techniques, they are able to craft some of the finest tasting rums and Tennessee whiskeys produced in America. Van will leave the center at 9:00 a.m. Van fee $5. Cookbook Committee and Recipes Needed We need volunteers to serve on our cookbook committee. The committee will help in organizing the layout of the cookbook and help type recipes. FiftyForward College Grove is creating a cookbook filled with recipes from center members and community members to sell as a center fundraiser. Some of you have already turned in recipes. If you have not submitted recipes, please bring in 3 recipes of your choice. We look forward to having a great compilation of tasty recipes to include in the cookbook. Quilting Bee...The center is interested in forming a quilting bee. This is a social time to gather and talk while expressing your artistic capabilities. It would be great to have the group construct a quilt that the center could auction off for a fundraiser. If you would like to participate in the bee please contact the center. Meeting day and time to be announced. *The Center will be closed Thursday, July 4 for Independence Day.
