Mark your calendars for our 2023 Wine Barrel Tasting fundraiser on March 25th from 11:00 am. to 5:00 pm. Follow us on Facebook for updates or look for info on our website.The wineries have both indoor and outdoor areas, so this is a “rain or shine event”.
If you have not participated in the fundraiser before, make 2023 the year you do! Call your friends and tell them how much fun they could have, driving through the Bluegrass, visiting wineries, and sampling Kentucky wines this spring. We have 13 wineries participating this year and each one will be a unique experience. If you are really in the mood to party, get a group large enough to hire a party bus or fill a car and have a designated driver friend!
All tickets sold will be through Eventbrite. (Our volunteers are not handling charge cards or cash transactions.) You will show your proof of ticket purchase at the first winery you choose to visit. You will then be given our commemorative wine glass, before participating in the tasting. At the next winery you will just need to show the volunteer your new glass.
The cost is $22 and goes towards the many free programs we have at McConnell Springs Park.
Tickets went on sale March 1. You can access Eventbrite through the QR code or use this link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/barrel-tasting-for-the-springs-tickets-538226438767 .
