SUMMARY:Irish Road Bowling on Rugby Parkway
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a FREE outdoor participant/spectator game of Irish Road Bowling right in the middle of Rugby on slightly traveled Rugby Parkway. Teams form as the game starts\, depending on who is there. All ages! Takes about one hour on the route used.  Play or just watch as the game proceeds west\, then east. We yell “CAR” to clear the pavement if one approaches. Starting point is the Historic Rugby Print Shop\, or near it. This involves tossing an iron ball down the road\, with the team making it back to the finish (also start) in the fewest throws being declared that day’s CHAMPIONS and getting their picture on Historic Rugby’s Facebook page! A sooty trophy (survived Harrow Road Cafe fire in 2020) is held in the photo — and much fun is experienced by all. (Visit YouTube to see how it’s played in Ireland. We don’t bet on the outcome like they do. Our teams are very amateur/impromptu!) START TIME FOR TEAM PICKS IS 6 p.m. EASTERN\, or 5 Central for those coming across the nearby bridge from Fentress County\, and 5 p.m. Eastern on June 27 only.

SUMMARY:Benefit Wine Tasting\, SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:Sorry but this event has now SOLD OUT. Join us for another special charity wine tasting hosted by certified Sommelier Justin Branim\, spotlighting the remarkable range of Spain’s most celebrated wines! \nJourney through the heart of Spain as we pour standout selections from iconic regions: the bold\, age-worthy Tempranillo of Rioja\, the earthy and full-bodied Mencía from Bierzo\, the bright coastal whites of Rías Baixas\, lesser-known treasures from Toro’s powerful reds\, robust Monastrell from Jumilla\, and the crisp\, celebratory Cava of Penedès\, plus many more. \nExpect well-known Spanish staples poured alongside rare native varietals seldom found on local shelves\, each bottle reflecting its own story of land\, heritage\, and craftsmanship. \nAccompanied by Jamón Ibérico\, a selection of other cured meats\, artisanal cheeses\, and crusty bread with extra virgin olive oil — a true Spanish tapas spread. \nEvery glass poured benefits Historic Rugby\, as we gather to explore\, enjoy\, and bond over remarkable wine. \nSpace is limited — only 60 tickets available\, so don’t miss this opportunity to taste some of the great wines of Spain. A ticket link was HERE.
