Daytona Beach conjures thoughts of fun and sun on one of the world’s most famous beaches. But, on Saturday, June 19 it may well become known for another event; the Second Annual Splendor in the Glass charity tasting event. The event, to be held for the second year at the St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church’s Riverfront Center at 129 North Halifax Avenue, will feature craft beer and wine tastings, great food, a silent auction and beautiful river views.
The brain child of Gail Irvine, Splendor in the Glass benefits The Arc of Volusia County, an organization that strives to provide opportunities for adults with intellectual or development disabilities. Last year’s event drew several hundred attendees and helped raise much-needed funds for The Arc’s important programs.
Beer for the event will once again be provided by S.R. Perrott distributers as well as several local Daytona pubs and establishments. Beer samples that guests will be able to enjoy include offerings from Boulder, Stone, Samuel Adams, Cigar City Brewing, HiStilts Brewing, Orange Blossom, Daytona Beach Brewing Company, Sierra Nevada, and Terrapin. Food will be provided by BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse, Bahama Breeze, Blue Grotto, Cabot Creamery, First Turn Steakhouse, Fletcher’s Fusion 43, Gene’s Steakhouse, Grind Gastropub, Hull’s Seafood, Jersey Mike’s, Lime Fresh Mexican Grill, Mr. Dunderbak’s and Peach Valley Café.
In addition, guests will be treated to break-our beer talks, a beer-brewing demonstration and music from Captain Nick.
The event runs from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. , tickets are $35 and may be purchased online here. You can get more information at the organization’s website: www.arcvolusia.org.
