Please join us for the last dinner before the summer break on June 12, 2021 at 6:00 PM at June BYOB in Collingswood, NJ. June BYOB is an upscale French restaurant owned and operated by husband and wife, Richard and Christina Cusack, a certified sommelier. It features traditional French cuisine with some modern influences. The Society had a dinner at June BYOB in December of 2019, when the restaurant was located in Philadelphia. Chef Richard has produced a fantastic menu, including the unique experience of Canard à la presse, prepared tableside.

This is a BYO Dinner. Each table will have a "captain" who will coordinate the wines that everyone at that table brings. If you want to captain a table, let the dinner chairman know your table-mates ASAP. If you do not have a group, the dinner chairman can place you at a table. If you do not have a wine that matches any of the suggestions for the courses, after talking with your captain, contact the dinner chairman, and he will find a wine for you to purchase AT COST from another member's cellar.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS DINNER IS ON SUNDAY NIGHT, AT 6:00 PM.
