- Wine tasting (Rockbridge Vineyard? Others?)

- Japanese tea ceremony (offered periodically by a student group at W&L)
- Soup swap (or crock-pot swap) – participants bring a dish, share samples and/or recipes
- There has been a loosely organized group who go to Rolex. Any potential there?

Movies are shown the first full weekend of every month that classes are in session. Showtimes are Friday and Saturday at 7pm and Sunday at 2pm."
