Members of WFS Jacksonville were "knocked out" by another phenomenal meal at The Capital Grille at this festive evening. Dinner Chairs Dwelvin Simmons and Alisia Martin asked attendees to don their best cowboy and cowgirl (cowperson) attire with a little bling and join in the fun. We began our festivities with Champagne on the adjoining patio, then proceeded to our seats in the Wine Room for a five course adventure. Dwelvin livened up the experience with a little western trivia rewarding the correct answers with select bottles of wine.
