Grapehounds - Virginia

Coming in May!!!! Visit us at the brand new regional event! This is a big event where greyhound adopters and the general public are invited to visit several wineries for a celebration of greyhound adoption. Some of the activities will include wine tasting, walks and music; vendors selling greyhound related items will also be on hand. This is going to be a wonderful opportunity for greyhound owners who want to enjoy northern Virginia wineries in the spring. FFGR, Inc. is a participating sponsor and will receive part of the proceeds for our organization. Particpating hotels in the area are waiving pet fees and offering group rates. Keep watching our web site and this event notice for more information!

When: May 14-16, 2010

Cost: $20 per ticket (includes a commemorative, specially designed wine glass as well as other goodies) - a portion of this fee will go to the greyhound adoption group of your choice.

Location: Several wineries in northern Virginia near Leesburg. Both Barrel Oak Winery (Delaplane, VA) and Breaux Winery (Purcellville, VA) are participating. Plans are to add more wineries.

Click on the title of this post for the web site. Keep checking back as we will add more information as we receive it. This is a wonderful opportunity for people in the region to meet and enjoy the company of other greyhound adopters (and their hounds) without having to travel too far!
