Your yearly assessment will be mailed to you this week. Payable anytime between now and Aug. 31. $800 per winery, $450 for lodgings and $1200 for a co-op tasting room. There are also 9 members who will receive a bill for missing Winter Wineland and or Barrel Tasting ticket money, which must also be paid in order to renew membership.

This week you can expect to receive a colorful newsletter outlining our plans for events (big and small) throughout 2016 – as we plan for a year of celebrations. You’ll also receive the sign-up form for the various events and social media programs, as well as donation requests of used barrels (for art) and wine for a raffle. We are getting SO excited about our plans!
