Another great turnout for one of our chapter events. There were 75 people who took part, this included founding members Dayton & Marie Ross, and also 7 pre teens, who thanks to Jack and Daphne Bergeron were invited to have a swim in their pool, which they all took advantage of.

Two absolutely gorgeous Model A Fords!

The View Winery

After a scenic drive through South East Kelowna, the group had picnic lunch at Ross & Bev's.

The View Winery is situated on a parcel of land that has been in the Turton/Ward family for 5 generations. Historically, fresh market apples were grown on the property. In the mid 1990’s a transition began, and vineyards and cider apples were planted. Spartans and McIntosh gave way to Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Ehrenfelser and Pinotage vines as well as cider apple varieties such as Belle de Boskoop, Chisel Jersey and Bulmers Norman.

In 2006, the family’s beloved old packinghouse built by Great Granddad Ward in 1922 was transformed into a winery and cidery under the direction of his grandson Chris Turton and great-granddaughter Jennifer Turton-Molgat.
