16th Annual Vino & Notes Festival!

Vino & Notes – Woodland Park

When and Where: Saturday, Aug. 3, At Memorial Park

ZCCC Host: Mark Ingles

Cost: See prices below

This brings together some of Colorado’s finest wineries, great food, and local musicians. This wine, food, and jazz festival is one of the premier events in Teller County.

The Fun Plan:

Drive south to the Air Force Academy Overlook Parking area on I-25. You’ll come upon it just after the Interquest Parkway Exit and before Briargate Parkway.  Meeting time is NLT 11:00am.  From that point we will Caravan to Woodland Park, parking at the Woodland Park HS Parking Lot.  We will then take the free shuttle bus to the event and enjoy!!  Please let Mark know if you are planning to go and whether you will meet up at the Overlook, or just see everyone at Vino & Notes.  Email Mark at markconative@gmail.com.

Originally, Mark was thinking of doing dinner after, but decided to not do that due to not being sensible logistically.  So, stay as long as you want, and have a safe drive home (or to a hotel).
