Kingston Order Bombers to Strike D'Vine Wines

    After targeting Kingston’s Ale House, Kafe Neo, and Scratch Kitchen, Kington Order Bombers have their sights set on D’Vine Wines in Kingston.  As explained by Kingston North Kitsap Rotary Club’s President-Elect, Chris Gilbreath, the purpose of the Kingston Order Bombers is to support local businesses, primarily restaurants, so severely impacted by Covid-19 shutdowns.  “By highlighting a specific establishment on a specific time and day, we can generate customers who wouldn’t otherwise have been there. It is but one initiative our Club has taken to help all who’ve been so terribly impacted, including the kids’ learning gaps, food insecurity, and homelessness and rent issues.”

    

    Kingston Rotarians urge all community members to take part in the action at D’Vine Wines, next Wednesday, Mar 31, 4-8p.  Owner Micki Monroe offers 30% discounts on wines by the bottle (40% if you’re a member of her wine club), and a complete Bistro Menu.

    To be a part of this week’s “bombing run” patrons need first signal Nancy Martin they’re in (nanjmartin@mac.com), then place a call (360-297-2127) to D’Vine Wines to reserve patio or indoor seating, or to place a takeout order.

What to do with your Coronavirus aid money
     President Biden recently signed the $1.9 trillion coronavirus aid package into law.  Under its terms, the new law will provide a $1400 check to most Americans.  For some, this is vitally needed to help with rents and mortgages, food, car payments, and the like.  
     For many who receive the $1400,  the money is not needed to meet immediate needs.  It is, in a sense, "found money."  Your Kingston North Kitsap Rotary Club requests that those folks give consideration to using their found money to help those in the community who need it through charitable gifts to local organizations that help those in need. Maybe they join the 100% Club by giving it all to charity around here.  Or, the 50% Club.  Or maybe they would like to join our Kingston Order Bombers each week buying food and services from local businesses.  OK.  Go ahead.  Buy a new golf club.  Or a new outfit.  But give the rest to ShareNet, or Kitsap Homes of Compassion, or the Boys and Girls Club.  Or become an Order Bomber.
