Locals Outing May River Golf Club $150
We’re inviting 64 lucky, local guests to experience an afternoon of golf at the award-winning May River Golf Club. The course, laced through centuries-old oaks and along the May River, will take your breath away. But, it’s Music to Your Mouth week, so it’s pretty important to us that you remember the food too! To fix that, we’ll bring in celebrated BBQ Master Frankie Denmark of Hawg Wild BBQ, who’ll be cooking up his favorites along the course. We’ll serve up the best we have to offer, you just hit ‘em straight!
Tee times to be confirmed in early November.
$25 of every ticket goes directly to Second Helpings, a Lowcountry organization dedicated to ensuring that no one in our community should have to worry about whether or not they will have enough food to eat today.

Champagne Blind Tasting Grower Champagne vs. The Grand Marques or Great Brands 3:00 – 4:00 p.m. Wine Cellar $50
Grower Champagnes are the Champagne equivalent of small Burgundy domaines: family owned, dedicated to high quality and committed to reflecting their terroirs. The Grand Marques Champagne houses produce a high quality product sourced from all over Champagne that tastes the same every year.
Join us for an informative and enlightening blind tasting of some of the best champagnes from both camps and see where your tastes really lie. By tasting blind, you remove the bias that can occur because of the fantastic marketing by the big houses; it is about what is in your glass, not what the bottle looks like.
