WEEKEND: ‘Yappy Hour’ on Saturday in Port Angeles will benefit Olympic Peninsula Humane Society

PORT ANGELES — A “Yappy Hour” wine tasting from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday will benefit the Olympic Peninsula Humane Society.

Harbinger Winery at 2358 U.S. Highway 101 in Port Angeles and Adventures Through Kayaking next door are collaborating on the fundraiser.

For the eighth year, Adventures Through Kayaking has donated a kayak to be raffled off, with all proceeds going to the humane society, which operates a shelter west of Port Angeles.

Harbinger Winery has produced a red wine by the name of “Menagerie,” with proceeds donated to the humane society.

During Yappy Hour, tasting will be complimentary for anyone older than 21, and a portion of all the evening’s sales will benefit the humane society.

The wine retails for $22 per bottle and is available only at the Harbinger Winery tasting room.

The kayak raffle will conclude Dec. 31.

The first name picked can choose between the kayak and a wine club membership for a year.

Also available are a handful of other prizes, including “a lunch break face-lift” from Olympic Day Spa in Port Angeles, barrel stave artwork by Strait Fusion and two complimentary kayak, bike or stand-up paddleboard rentals from Adventures Through Kayaking.

Raffle tickets are $5 each and can be purchased at the Harbinger Winery tasting room and at Adventures Through Kayaking.

The humane society is an open-admission shelter, which means it doesn’t turn any animals away.

Each year, approximately 2,000 animals are brought to the shelter for care and adoption, fundraiser organizers said.

For information, call 360-452-4262 or email info@harbingerwinery.com.
