It's hard to believe that summer is almost over, so it's time to savor the summer...literally. It's the 12th annual "Savor the Summer" event with ACHIEVE on August 25th from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

ACHIEVE'S "Savor The Summer" Event

It takes place at ACHIEVE, 125 Cutler Pond Road in Binghamton. It's under the big white tents so it'll take place rain or shine. It's an elegant and fun night of sampling our area's best wineries, breweries and restaurants.

I put it on my calendar every year and was thrilled that it was back last year after taking 2019 off because of the pandemic. It's a chance to sample some fine tasting food and drink while listening to music and looking out over Cutler Pond.

It's their biggest fundraiser of the year and it's a chance to help out an organization that's been around since 1952. It started out when 10 families got together to help kids with developmental disabilities.

70 years later, they are the place in our area to go for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. All proceeds from the "Savor the Summer" event help ACHIEVE fund the critical services they give to over 2,200 individuals in the Broome, Chenango and Tioga county areas.

You can find out more about ACHIEVE, their other events, or if you would like to work with them, go here. Fall doesn't officially get here until Thursday, September 22nd so there is still time to "Savor the Summer" on Thursday, August 25th at 125 Cutler Pond Road.

I'll be there and I hope that you will join me too.
