Camphill Village Kimberton Hills' 4th Annual Wine and Dine Talkfest: Sunday, April 29 at 5



To my amazement, and due to quite a few requests, we are now talking wineries into helping us out with a few fine bottles for the upcoming Talkfest - Version 4.  Before you forget, put it in your calendar: Sunday, April 29 at 5 at the world famous Birchrunville Store Café in…Birchrunville, Pennsylvania.

And then immediately email your reservation to our most excellent Bernadette Kovaleski, bernadette@camphillkimberton.org, or call her, 610-935-8660.  You probably should do both just to make sure you have a place reserved.  I am pleased to report that we have had a full house the first three times and expect another one this year.

If you happen to be in the horrible situation of finding something already on your calendar on April 29…be calm.  There is plenty of time for you to get out of that other event.  If you can’t think of any great ideas for how to do this, call Bernadette (610-935-8660) and she will share her complete list of ways to politely tell people that you found a better place to be.  And while you’re on the phone with her, don’t forget to make a reservation to Birchrunville’s best event of the year.

You show up.  We will provide:
  • Scintillating conversationalists there for the talking
  • Exceptional wine to lubricate your ideas
  • Spectacular hors d'œuvres flowing continuously from the kitchen of renowned chef Francis Trzeciak
  • And…NO…that’s No program at all! 
We think you are the most interesting people with the best ideas and experiences to share.  Who needs someone yakking at you from the front of the room with a PowerPoint behind them?  We have you!  All of you.  All to yourselves.  (We'll certainly tell you all about this wonderful place called Camphill Kimberton, but within the context of other fascinating conversation.)

We thought a lot about the proper fee for such an exceptional event. And after all, it does support a wonderful place.  Finally we decided to offer the spectacular early registration fee of $158.79 per person. This is $6.20 less than last year!  (Mostly because I still have a few bottles of wine left, but don’t tell that to anyone.)

We also have our sponsorships:
  • $748.25 gets you 2 tickets and 1 minute 13 seconds to say something to the group.
  • $1746.50 get you 4 tickets, 1 minutes 45 seconds to share your thoughts, and best of all I will take you and three friends to dinner at the Café…on him!
  • $2287.75 gets you all the $1746.50 stuff but you get to leave Steve home…and talk to the group for 2 minutes 8 seconds.

See you there,

Steve Smolinsky
President, Board of Directors
