"The event takes place from 3-7 p.m. this Sunday, said owner Bill Scurlock. "It will be a beer and food tasting as well as a fundraiser for Opportunities Inc. Last year went so well, Opportunities Inc., wanted another round. So here we go."

The bar will be open, as well. (Must be 21 or older to participate.)
