Due to Washington State Liquor Board regulations, we are not allowed to have persons under 21 years of age present at monthly program meetings or at the two annual society events, the Northwest Wine Festival and the International Wine Fair.

Even though a baby in a stroller or back carrier may seem harmless enough, the regulations tied to our banquet permit prohibit any minors from attending.

Please make arrangements for child care when you're planning to attend a society meeting or event.
