The AOTB Property Owners Association is throwing a great party on the community beach Sunday, June 22 from 4 to 7 pm. Wine tasting will be offered at no charge to adult community members by Bay Ridge Wine and Spirits. The theme will be Summer Wines; Sip, Swirl, Savor and wine experts will guide party goers through some of the best wines for summer sipping. Wine will also be available to purchase by the full glass and by the bottle. We are also adding some Reserve Wines and great beers for purchase. The wine and Jazz party is an adults only event.

The Jim Ballard Jazz quartet will be performing all afternoon for those who wish to listen or dance. Ballard has performed with the Ink Spots, locally at Middleton's Tavern and was even featured during the Obama Inaugural. Ballard will perform vocals and the group includes saxophone, bass, piano and drums. Contact Marc Apter below with song requests.

Every family is asked to bring a dish to be shared based on the first letter of their last name.  

• Last names from A through F should bring hors d'oeuvres;
• From G through M: a main course;
• From N through S: dessert; and
• From T through Z: bottled water, soda, or other non-alcoholic drinks. 

Each family will be charged $10 to defray the costs including tents, ice, glasses, plates etc. at the event.

We will be providing a porta potty, tables and some chairs but you are encouraged to bring your own folding chairs. We will have some tents for shade and protection from showers. There is no rain day planned. The party goes on rain or shine. Please RSVP to marca1030@gmail.com by June 18th so we may plan accurately for the size crowd to expect.
