Celebrate the sun’s appearance with a few North Bank weekend picks
The sun is shining and, if you’re looking for a way to celebrate its appearance, here are my top picks for the Clark County area:
Rescheduled from last weekend due to the storm that wasn’t quite, Confluence Vineyards Winery is hosting their “Harvest in the Vineyard Festival.” There are very few opportunities for a second chance to attend a missed event. Why not take advantage of this one? Today and tomorrow from noon to 6 p.m. with local artisan vendors, food, live music and wine tastings.
Rusty Grape Vineyards turns 10! From 4 – 10 p.m., enjoy their Octoberfest antics including: A Pint Glass Relay at 5 p.m. with 3-person teams. Racing for a Dinner for 6 including shuttle service! (purchase tickets here); a Costume Contest at 6:30 p.m. (think German outfit). Winner receives a Rusty Grape Swag Bag and free pizza coupon; Yodeling contest at 8 p.m. Winner walks away with free pizza for a year!
Drink This! Vancouver from 4-9 p.m. This 21 and over event is a fabulous way to check out all that’s going on in the revitalized downtown Vancouver area. Just show up at one of the below locations, pick up a free map and walk from one great spot to another.
