The Okanagan’s oldest and most charming wine region, The Lakeshore Wine Route, is pairing with the BCSPCA to invite Kelowna neighbours and their pets to the second annual “Unleashed” party on April 30, 2016 at St. Hubertus, CedarCreek, Summerhill, and Tantalus Wineries.

Wineries open their doors from 12:00pm to 4:00pm and welcome visitors and their pooches to join in on pet-friendly fun and complimentary canapé-paired wine tastings, dog walks through the vineyard, puppy portraits and more. Guests will be given a “pawsport” to collect stamps which allow them to enter in a draw to win a grand prize. Suggested donations are $20.00 and all wine purchases made on April 30 will support the BCSPCA.

“This is our second season hosting the unleashed party and we consider ourselves very fortunate to be able to contribute to the initiatives that the BCSPCA supports,” said Ezra Cipes, CEO, Summerhill Pyramid Winery. “With the help of St. Hubertus, Cedar Creek and Tantalus, and the fun activities we have in store, we anticipate an even bigger attendance this year”.
