Ravenna – Portage APL invites you to attend PAWS TO TASTE 2019 on November 16, 2019. The event will be held at the Kent State University Hotel and Conference Center from 6-9. This annual wine and beer tasting to benefit Portage Animal Protective League promises to be the best yet. The evening will include wine pairings of select wines, delicious hors d’ oeuvres as well as some beer for the non-wine drinkers. A silent auction, live music, wine pull, lottery tree raffle and 50/50 raffle will add to the fun. Some wonderful APL animals will also be in attendance to say hello.
“Last year was our best year so far and this year will be even better!” says, Chalan Lowry APL Executive Director. “The menu and wine/beer selection is delicious and has more options, and the hotel is offering a discounted price for people who want to stay! The more people who attend, the more money we raise to help our animals. We hope this is our largest year yet, so please come and enjoy.” Reservations are $55 per person until November 1st, then $60 after.
