PRESQUE ISLE — Momentum Aroostook members and the Friends of Central Aroostook Humane Society are teaming up with The Crow’s Nest to present the second annual “A Toast for the Animals” — a wine-tasting and silent auction event taking place on Thursday, Nov. 10, from 6-9 p.m. Tickets are $15 each, with proceeds benefiting the Central Aroostook Humane Society.
A ticket to the event, being held at The Crow’s Nest, located on Maysville Street, Presque Isle, will provide participants with four wine samples and an opportunity to learn about different wines and how to pair them with certain foods.
The presentation will feature some of the techniques used in judging wines, from appearance to finish, and in assessing their overall quality. Participants also will have the chance to learn about (and taste for themselves) the types of cheeses and desserts that pair well with the four wine varieties that will be presented at tasting stations throughout the venue.
The evening’s activities will also include door prizes, a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction.
