Sip some wine for a good cause

The annual Franklin Area Junior Women’s Club Wine Tasting event will be held Friday, February 6th, 6:30pm to 9pm, at Hugo's Steakhouse (6951 S.

The proceeds from this event are funneled directly back into the communities of Franklin, Oak Creek, Hales Corners, and Greendale.  The greatest beneficiary of this successful event has been the paramedic units in Franklin and Oak Creek who received state-of-the-art pediatric emergency equipment.  Now, thanks the efforts of the Franklin Area Juniors who headed up this project, every paramedic unit in Milwaukee County is outfitted with this important equipment.
 
The club also awards a scholarship each year to a graduating senior from each community high school – Oak Creek, Franklin, Whitnall, and Greendale.
 
This will be the first event that the club will be hosting under its new name, the GFWC-Root River Junior Women’s Club!
 
If you are unable to attend, donations to the club are always appreciated as are donated items for our silent auction.  The club is a 501c3 tax exempt organization and donations are tax deductible.
 
We hope you will come out and join us for a fun-filled evening with friends and neighbors that also benefits the community!
 
Wishing you a very happy, healthy, and prosperous new year,

Shari Hanneman
