Sun Singer News
 
In Brief

As we're writing this week's newsletter there's one thing that's a constant about Sun Singer - there's almost always someone laughing.  As you scan the tables around the room, they're filled with the smiling faces of friends enjoying themselves.  I think that means alot to all of us who work here and it's contagious because we're smiling too!

WiFi
Have we told you that Sun Singer offers now offers WiFi for our customers!  No need to drink alone at the computer when you can eat and drink in the Cafe while you browse the web or catch up with daily email.  It oesn't get much better so join us soon.  Just ask your server for the access code.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
How many of you saw our very own Brian Bowman on the WCIA Morning Show last Wednesday? You can catch the few moments here.  The Subject was Port in advance of our upcoming  Port Symposium, Sunday February 8 from 4:00 - 6:00pm. We were very happy with Brian's presentation and felt that it was a great introduction to the subject. Now we'll ask you to join us for the full course including the opportunity to taste ports from the oldest producer in Portugal. And with our newly extended Sunday hours, you'll have time for the seminar and dinner afterward in the Cafe.

We're not going to joke that winter is well on it's way - with snow falling at the moment, but if you're starting to feel a bit of cabin fever our suggestion would be to come right over to the Cafe for a treat and a laugh! Join us for the upcoming Port Symposium or for our introductory Wine 101 class February 10th.

Join us soon  for more good times at  Sun Singer!

Our Best Wishes for '09,

Jackie, Mark & the Sun Singer Staff

Port is a fortified wine from the remote vineyards in Portugal's Douro Valley, where time has almost stood still. You will not find the latest wine making techniques and fancy equipment. Instead, you will find a wine industry much the way it was over a hundred years ago. Join Sun Singer as we discuss & taste the history and various styles of the great fortified wines of Portugal.

Wines with bubbles are associated, for many people, primarily with festivities, celebrations and the elite.

We invite you to come in and enjoy bubbles for $3, quiche from Pekara Bakehouse and so much more!

Let's face it, there just aren't enough hours in a day and Sun Singer is doing something about it! We decided to add a few more. Beginning Sunday, January 18th we wanted to make certain that there are enough hours in our Sunday schedule to enjoy more of the good times at Sun Singer. Now we'll be open earlier for lunch, or brunch if you like, plus you'll have plenty of time for a leisurely dinner - a pleasant way to end the week or to start a new one.  Add a few hours to your weekend as we all measure the days looking forward to Spring.
