Old World vs. New World California Sunday School

Old World vs. New World California Sunday School

Join us for our Sunday School Wine Seminar exploring Old World vs. New World California wines with Alden Park Restaurant. If you have ever thought about how some wines maybe the same vareital and come from the same area but taste very different? Well if you would like to find out then join us as we explore different wine making styles with Len Presutti.

 

 

Fantastic wines, amazing food from local restaurants, top-rate speakers……

Our Sunday School classes begin in February and sell out quickly! Now in our 13th year, we continue to receive early requests and reservations for our growing seminar program. The best testament to our fun and informative wine classes is the fact that we sell out quickly, and our customers are eager to return every year. Our classes offer a variety of themes (regions, vineyards, varietals), and provide first-rate, wine knowledgeable speakers as well as amazing tasting menus from local restaurants. All classes are held at Pioppi’s Package Store from 1 P.M. until 3 P.M. includes a fabulous tasting menu paired with a sampling of wines.

Thursday, March 24, 2016Women Mean Business Lunch

Women Mean Business Luncheon- Mirbeau Inn & Spa

Women Mean Business Luncheon- Mirbeau Inn & Spa
Luncheon will feature Guest Speaker: Stacey Shipman from Developing Brave Communications.

Present Ideas with Ease & Influence
How you present yourself and your ideas - during speeches, meetings, and client conversations - makes a difference in your ability to connect with and influence others. Yet some people get nervous speaking in public, have a hard time communicating ideas in a concise way, and some avoid speaking up all together. This program teaches audiences how to enhance professional presence, capitalize on speaking anxiety, develop a clear message, and establish audience trust. Even if your hands shake and your heart races, you can learn to deliver effective presentations.

When:
Thursday, March 24, 2016 12:00 PM thru 01:30 PM
Where:
Mirbeau Inn & Spa at the Pinehills

Plymouth MA 02360

Member Cost: $25.00
Non Member Cost: $40.00

About Stacey Shipman
As a speaker, author, and founder of Brave Communicator, Stacey Shipman believes that everyone has a message that can make someone life better.

Whether teaching presentation skills, producing events, facilitating a panel conversation, or writing books, connecting people - to their personal power, tools and support, or clients and opportunities - is at the heart of Stacey’s work.

Clients hire Stacey to speak, teach workshops, facilitate and produce events when they want to communicate ideas in a way that builds creditability and trust with the clients & communities they serve. In addition, Stacey produces empowerment retreats for women, publishes the Nervous & Novice pocket guides, and hosts the Brave Communicator podcast (coming soon) where she tackles topics related to leadership, entrepreneurship, & well-being.

More than anything Stacey wants people to know that their stories, knowledge, and ideas matter. When we have the courage to connect to and share the message in our heart, we can make a positive difference.
