The Grape Adventure or....How Wine is Mde
- Winemaking can be a dizzyingly complicated business, with all of the modern science and technology involved, and all of the advanced training now offered, all of the artistic abilities needed to craft just the right wine.

That hasn't changed in thousands of years, even as vineyards have grown to cover more than 20 million acres of the earth's surface, producing more than 60 million tons of fruit, 80 percent of which is made into wine. Learn how grapes are planted, harvested, and made into that luscious juice we call wine! What Do I Get From Each Class? Besides enduring our wonderful personalities and receiving a nifty Winery U! diploma at the end of class, each participant will receive printed course materials, additional informational materials, and maybe even a surprise or two? You'll even get to taste some wine. What Does It Cost? Cost is $30.00 per person per class, or register for all 4 Winery U classes for only $25.00 per person per class. Pre-registration is required & limited to the first 30 people.

Lone Star Chapter 8620 North New Braunfels, Ste110 Phone 210-829-7267 Fax 210-829-4204 San Antonio, TX 78217 Cystic fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 35,000 children and adults in the United States (70,000 worldwide). A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusually thick, sticky mucus that: - Clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections; and - Obstructs the pancreas and stops natural enzymes from helping the body break down and absorb food. In the 1950s, few children with cystic fibrosis lived to attend elementary school. Today, advances in research and medical treatments have further enhanced and extended life for children and adults with CF. Many people with the disease can now expect to live into their late 30s, 40s and beyond. This has all come about from the support of events like the Great Strides walk. "Because of risks to people with cystic fibrosis (CF), individuals with a confirmed positive sputum culture for Burkholderia cepacia complex shall not attend this event. This is because B. cepacia can be passed between individuals who have CF through close proximity. B. cepacia infection in a person with CF can cause serious respiratory illness and, in some patients, may lead to death. Despite this policy, there might still be some individuals with B. cepacia in attendance. B. cepacia is not a risk for otherwise healthy individuals. For alternative ways to participate and for information about this policy, please contact the CF Foundation at (800) FIGHT-CF or visit our Web site at www.cff.org. Consult your CF care center physician with medical questions." Address: 305 W Austin St , New Braunfels, Texas |
