WHAT: The NTU Alumni Association of Pittsburgh has
scheduled a field trip as follows.
Since the winery is only about two hour's drive from
Pittsburgh, no coach transportation will be arranged. Please drive or car pool to the destination
directly. You may choose to have lunch with us together at noon, or
skip lunch and join us directly for the
tour starting 1:30 pm.

Lunch at the winery's
picnic tables. The Association can take your order for a
sandwich ($7.00 each, prepared by a local restaurant Thee
Village Eatinghouse, http://www.smicksburg.com/), or you can pack your own lunch box. The sandwich
options include: 1) Slow Roasted Beef Sandwich, 2) Grilled Portabella
Mushroom Sandwich, and 3) Oven Roasted Turkey Sandwich.

Gathering at the winery front entrance .
1:30PM
- 2:30PM: Private
tour of the wine cellar. See how wine is made with a tour of the winery. Group tours culminate in a tasting in their
winery showroom.
2:30PM Onwards: After the tour no set plan is
organized. The Smicksburg area is home to over 280 Amish families ,
still strolling and farming with horses. So feel free to
