VALE
-- More than 100 people enjoyed
great dancing, a balloon drop and a
fully-catered breakfast to ring in 2009
at Woodmill Winery.
Exclusive
video on The Carolina Scoop shows the
final seconds of 2008 and the first few
seconds of 2009, including the balloon
drop.
According
to Woodmill Winery owner and operator
Larry Cagle, it's the second year in a
row the winery held a New Year's event.
"We
had 40 people registered two days
ago," said Cagle. "As of New
Year's Eve morning, we have 100."
Cagle
exclusively advertised the event in
Lincoln County in The Carolina Scoop.
People
from across Lincoln County -- and some
from Catawba County -- made Woodmill
Winery their destination of choice for
New Year's Eve and part of New Year's
Day.
People
attending Woodmill Winery's New Years Eve
celebration enjoyed great food, great
music and a lot of dancing.
After
the balloon drop, the crowd in attendance
was treated to a fully-catered breakfast
by Ryan's Steakhouse of Lincolnton.
It's one
of two high-profiled events going on at
the winery during the month of January.
The
Carolina Scoop will provide exclusive
coverage of the unveiling of a new
blackberry wine 2 p.m. Saturday, January
24.
See the
Woodmill Winery advertisement on the main
page of The Carolina Scoop. For more
