Wine Women & Sport 2019

Join us for our 3rd annual social celebration of Wine, Women & Sport - an evening of empowerment & mingling - exploring new opportunities for women in fitness, health & sport. Proceeds benefit Centennial High School Senior Girls Soccer Program (see details below under Organizer Description). Each ticket includes a souvenir wine glass, your first glass of Township 7 wine and tapas prepared by Centennial Secondary Culinary Arts students led by Chef Jonas.

The evening features fitness, health and sport table top displays. If your business or organization would like to feature a table top display please call 604-818-7407 or email jenna649@hotmail.com.

New for 2019 is an opportunity to enjoy wine while mingling, visiting exhibit tables and during the panel presentation. The Centaurs Girls Soccer team will do a quick set up change in the foyer to provide seating for all - no moving to the Centennial Theatre! We feel this provides a more casual and intimate venue.
