UP Wine Night on the Bluff

Some of our UP friends, Summer and DJ Widmer, have been involved with our alma mater's effort to recruit young(ish) alum to come back and support our school. They have hosted numerous events, from UP basketball Young Alum Nights, to Wine Nights on the Bluff. We have been out of town or busy the last few summers to be able to attend Wine Night, but this time were fortunate enough to be able to go back and reconnect with old UP graduates. There was wine, food and music for us to enjoy that night - it was fun to be back! We also got to see the new and improved Commons. It has definitely changed from when we were undergraduates. They now offer gourmet food, including an array of freshly prepared sushi, a full coffee bar, along with a fireside ambiance to enjoy. Back in the day when we were there, our food choices were very limited, to say the least. I remember choosing between sandwiches or salads on most nights (not wanting to attempt the mystery meat choice), while sitting on a plastic chair at an old, round cafeteria table. They have no idea how lucky they are now!





I loved being able to take Tristan to Wine Night, too!
