NMTC WOW (WINE ON THE WATER) DEPLOYS
(Havre de Grace, MD) Northeastern Maryland Technology Council (NMTC), held its 12th annual Wine On the Water (WOW) wine tasting on September 4, 2019, from 5:30-8:30PM, and raised funds to support regional STEM education and STEM scholarships by entertaining guests with the latest in event technology – a mobile robot photographer and concierge taking and emailing photos while answering questions and polling wine drinkers on their favorite wine.
For the fourth year in a row, the NMTC WOW wine tasting was hosted at the stunning Seaplane Base at La Banque de Fleuve on the Susquehanna River in downtown Havre de Grace. This facility has become the most popular place for weddings and large corporate events in northeastern MD.
With more than 200 registered guests, attendees included Mayor Bill Martin of Havre de Grace, members of the city council, senior leaders from Aberdeen Proving Ground, defense contracting executives, representatives from area technology companies, and other community leaders. All were feted with dozens of wines, many high-quality bourbons, a craft beer, and single malt scotch selections. When not sampling the many beverage selections, a continuous array of both German and French cuisine proved to be a fine compliment. The 13th Annual WOW event is being set for September 16, 2020.
September 24, from 5-8PM at the historic Liriodendron Mansion, Bel Air MD, with Lavish cuisine catered by the Laurrapin Grille, over 120 people enjoyed 26 wines to sample.
The NMTC’s annual WOW! fundraiser for STEM education was a 3 hour event and a gathering of a wide cross-section of our community – Defense contractors, educators, business people, wine club enthusiasts, Aberdeen Proving Ground personnel and too many more to mention. It was the organizations first venue of this scale and location; results and attendee comments verified it was a hugh success, and a must to repeat again next year.
Shown here is the featured pour of the evening, our Grand Pour of top wines (sponsored by Adams Communications, Engineering & Technology), expertly descibed and poured by Jim Bishop, owner Jim’s BottleWorks, being enjoyed by (L to R), Bridgette Johnson Harford County OED, Karen Holt Regional BRAC Manager CSSC, Jill McClune VP Federal Contracts & Compliance at Avon Protection (and President, Army Alliance) and Wayne Holt Supervisor of Facilities, Cecil Co. Public Schools.
More than special thanks to our WOW committee members who worked for months to make this an enjoyable event: Melissa Kuzma (Chair) Sue Manning, Jack Schammel, Randy Rippin, Ginny Walker, Claudine Adams, Donna Mendes and John Casner.
Add to that the NMTC Board, who donated wine for the Board’s Wine Cellar Basket; this year with over $500 of wine. More to come on who won that basket.
