Put-in-Bay Wine Festival

If you needed another reason to enjoy a fall Saturday at Put-in-Bay, this is it. The fifth annual Put-in-Bay Wine Festival is Saturday, October 4, from 11am to 6pm.

The Festival features more than 200 wines, many of them from Lake Erie wineries, including Put-in-Bay's own Heineman Winery. There'll also be live entertainment, food from island restaurants (including chocolate dipped grapes), and a silent auction.

Admission is $5 plus $1 tasting tickets. Wine samples are from 1 to 8 tickets. The Put-in-Bay Wine Festival is being held in DeVivera Park, in the heart of downtown Put-in-Bay. For more information, call 419 285-2213.
