The meeting recap will be on our website, in Member Only Section, by the end of the week.

My take away ~ we need you to share the content we create. To help with that, at the beginning of each month, we will be sending you a content sharing tool kit. We will include text, photos and a link the newsletter, podcast and various blogs - so you can easily pick what makes the most sense for you to cut and paste into your newsletters, wine club shipments or social sharing. The content is developed for you to use and we want to make that process as easy as possible.

The web page is now listing over 80 of our winery members who have agreed to a $5 shipping fee on a case of wine, from now until Nov. 22.

We can add more wineries.  Use the hashtags #SipSonoma  #WineRoad  #GatherInSonoma     Click here to check it out #SipSonoma

The list of participating wineries is online and tickets went on sale last week, via our monthly Wine Road newsletter.

The event invitation will go out tomorrow.

Debbie will be sending the participating wineries a tool kit for social sharing in the next couple of weeks.

Our initial outreach usually kicks things off pretty well. We need wineries to begin pushing this out on their social channels around  Dec. 1st.

We have now sold 700 tickets. Here we go again...
