The Sommelier Guild is pleased to announce that it has awarded five $500 scholarships to the following students enrolled in the Fast-Track Certificate Sommelier Program at Algonquin College. Mr. Brett Corlett of Restaurant Eighteen Ms. Trisha Donaldson of the Black Cat Café Ms. Janet Fletcher of Beckta Dining and Wine Ms. Erin O’Reilly of Par-Fyum Mr. Geoffrey Skeggs of Zymurgy Wine & Beer Congratulations to all of these students. The Scholarship for Wine Education was established by the Sommelier Guild in 2003 to promote educational opportunities and foster development of professional wine service with individuals employed full-time in the hospitality industry in the Ottawa-Gatineau community. Our relationship with the Algonquin Certificate Sommelier Program extends throughout our membership and support of the program is considered a natural affiliation. The Scholarship is an opportunity for the Guild to pursue its educational mandate in a manner that initially benefits students but ultimately will lead to improved wine service for consumers throughout the National Capital Region. |
