Out and About
on the scene
Wine Fest is our annual trip to start the year off right! We invited a few select guests to sip and mingle at the COVA Wine Fest in Virginia Beach. This year was special as it was the first year the festival was celebrated since the COVID-19 shutdown. It was a vibe and we do this annually. There are still spots available for 2023, so see our website for more information and registration.
We kicked off our annual brunch series this year after a long hiatus. We had a good turnout and everyone was excited to discuss their 2023 travel plans. We raffled off VISA and Starbucks gift cards and enjoyed a few fun icebreakers. We made new friendships, and a few attendees came alone and left with a new bestie! We can’t wait to do it again at the end of this month.
