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.

 

12:00PM - 1:30PM: 

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. 

 

1:15PM - 1:30PM: 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 continue your journey through the peaceful countryside and patronize the Amish shops that offer things such as hand-made furniture , pottery, home-baked goods, wood crafts, etc.

 

COST:

    Winery admissions - free

    Lunch - pay for your order (if you order from the restaurant) 

    Light refreshment will be provided by the Association

 

REGISTRATION: Please RSVP with any of the following board members or email to [email protected] by Friday, July 7, 2006.  Also indicate if you are going to join the lunch or not. If you need the Association to order a sandwich for you, please let us know your selection.
