Color Your Palate

Thursday, Oct 16 • 6 PM • The Fortress

Experience Frankenmuth in a Whole New Way!

Join us for an unforgettable evening surrounded by the beauty of autumn at The Fortress Golf Course. Stroll through the crisp fall colors while enjoying five curated tastings of wine or Iron Fish spirits, each perfectly paired with hors d’oeuvres.

As the night winds down, cozy up at the s’mores bar to cap off the evening with something sweet. Bring your friends, plan a date night, and make memories at this one-of-a-kind fall event!

Best of all, proceeds from the evening will directly benefit First Tee Eastern Michigan, helping us empower youth through life-changing programs. The simple lessons learned on the golf course—like honesty, perseverance, and respect—become the lifelong skills kids carry into classrooms, careers, and communities. Every ticket helps shape not just a child’s future, but the future of our region.
