What really matters is the power of one; support local business



Support locally-owned businesses
FYF’s philosophy of life is to be Forever Young and Fun.  Much of the world is over-the-edge serious about meaningless things.  We can all look through our lives and pick out our own fun-killers like the useless clothes in our closets.
"Pick out our own fun-killers like the useless clothes in our closets"
But many things in life do matter.  One such thing is the support of independent, locally-run businesses.  Why?  It is because the greatest ideas in the world start with one seed of thought, from one person.   FYF believes in the power of one.
The individual businessperson takes on new concepts and ideas that large corporations will not.  They change the world through inspiration and belief versus return on investment and market share.  We need to support their visions.

Tony Klausing of Good Vibes Winery, 2 South State St. Westerville, is an example of such a person.  He believes he can make wine as good as anyone.  He buys his juices from vineyards around the world and takes on the big boys.  And FYF supports him for it.
FYF is holding a Blind Date with Book event and wine tasting on Thursday, March 28, to give people an opportunity to try out his wines and support a locally-run business.

The wine tasting is $20 and allows you to try a variety of Tony’s wines and enjoy a few snacks from 6:30 pm till 8:30 pm.  If you just want to stop in and have one glass of wine and not participate in the wine tasting, then please do.  You can still participate in the book event.
To participate in the Blind Date with a Book event, bring one of your favorite books wrapped in plain brown paper.  Your book is the “blind date.” It can be any book from the classics to trashy novels.  Try and guess what others have brought and learn why they love their book.  Trading of books is allowed.

It is a great way to meet new people, find a new book to love, try some of Tony’s wines and support a great small business.  If you’d like to sign up for the wine tasting then use the Paypal button on the right hand corner of this page or send an email to fyfevents@gmail.com.
Fun events combined with social media is what we do.  FYF Events will continue to work with and support other independent, locally run companies that want to be forever young and fun by following their dreams.  We hope you do the same.
