The timing worked out for us to attend the Festival of the Grape in Oliver this year. We are Crush Club members at a local winery which means we get a box of wine each year and a discount on all purchases. It also includes a Pick Up party in the fall where we pick up our wine as well as get some free food and entertainment. It's a whirlwind trip since we leave right after school on the Friday, attend the party on Saturday evening and then Festival of the Grape on Sunday morning before heading back in the afternoon on Sunday. Luckily Oliver is only a 4 1/2 hour trip so it's not too bad.
It was an even fuller weekend for Kerry, Barb and Reg. Barb and Reg are close friends with the owners of the Silver Sage winery and have been spending some of their free time helping out at the winery. Kerry joins in the fun from time to time as well and even has her alcohol serving ticket. Kerry helped out at the winery on the Saturday afternoon which was very busy due to so many people in town for the festival and Barb and Reg helped out at the Festival itself. A fun weekend and the weather was quite nice.
