Wine lovers rejoice! Uncorked, Sunriver Style is returning following a two-year, pandemic-induced hiatus.

What a better way to celebrate the end of summer’s hustle and bustle with wine, chocolate and cheese. Join the Sunriver Owners Association, along with premier sponsor Cascara Vacation Rentals, for two days of decadence, great music and boutique vendors in SHARC’s Benham Hall and outdoor amphitheater on Sept. 16-17.

Sample and sip a variety of Oregon wines from the Southern, Willamette and Columbia River wine regions while sampling decadent chocolates and cheeses. Shop vendors and enjoy small bites from a local food cart. Attend a class to learn how to pair different wines with chocolates and cheeses (additional cost required at the event). Or, relax on the amphitheater patio while enjoying live music and a glass of wine or a beer from a local brewing company.

If you are looking for a creative way to celebrate a special occasion or create an event, Sip & Paint has you covered. No experience needed / all supplies included.

Sunriver You’s Fall Class:

Bridge for Beginners

3 to 4:30 p.m. | Wednesdays: Sept. 27;

Taught by Sunriver resident Sandi Merrigan with assistance from fellow bridge playing cohorts.

It’s a Catch 22: you want to learn to play bridge in a group, but bridge groups are for experienced players. Here’s a chance to learn the basic rules, etiquette, strategies and vocabulary of this challenging card game. Topics covered in this 6-week session include hand-valuation, bidding, trick-taking, and scoring. Hands-on experience will give you confidence to participate in Sunriver area bridge groups. This is a 6-week series, each class building on the last, so please try to attend every class for continuity.
