- This event has passed.
Shades of pink….WINE! October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and Wine OFF the Fox on Saturday, Oct. 22 features wine tasting and live performances from girl bands at Oswego’s Venue 1012. Plus, a portion of the event’s proceeds benefit organizations that provide breast cancer services and support.
Select and sip from more than 18 varieties of wine including blush, white and red; seasonal craft beer from Oswego Brewing Company; a signature cocktail and non-alcoholic options. Bring your own picnic and relax in the crisp autumn air while you listen to the hottest hits of the ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s and today from girl bands Jersey Girls and Serendipity.
