A Gentleman's Evening of Scotch and Cigars was held at the River Inn at Harbor Town in downtown Memphis on October 8, 2009. Beautiful views and great company enhanced the night that included various scotch tastings from Southwestern Distributors and cigar tastings from Altadis USA. Proceeds from the silent auction as well as donations benefitted the Memphis Oral School for the Deaf.
