Saturday Marketplace Events
Grapevine Wine Trail Foundation Fundraiser
Sponsored by the Grapevine Convention & Visitors Bureau
Join us Saturday afternoon as we explore the Grapevine Wine Trail. Savor the flavor of award-winning Texas wines, as well as the unique atmosphere of Grapevine's nine winery tasting rooms and see for yourself why Texas is now the fifth largest wine producing state in the nation. Lose yourself in the splendor of the Grapevine Wine Trail, where you can explore wine experiences from sampling to blending and bottling wine and creating personal labels. Help raise money for ABA’s Foundation and share a toast as we kick off the Texas Marketplace 2007! There is a $25 fee for this event. Sign up on your registration form.
Note: The Wine Trail Foundation event is different than the Wine Trail sightseeing tour available on Sunday and Wednesday. The Wine Trail sightseeing tour will be a basic tour with more information on how the wine is made, process, and what the group tours would get when they come to town. The Foundation Wine Trail is more of a festival with tasting, entertainment and food.
Foundation Golf Tournament at Bear Creek Golf Club
Sponsored by the American Bus Association Foundation
You might not want to mess with Texas but we hope you would take a swing at our first ever Marketplace Golf Tournament. We hope you will take this opportunity to experience the splendor of the Bear Creek Golf Creek on Saturday. This is an opportunity to challenge your game and help the Foundation raise money to support education and research initiatives. Join us as we kick off the Texas Marketplace 2007! There is a $100 fee for this event. Sign up on your registration form.
Gaylord Texan Idol Showcase
Sponsored by the Gaylord Texan Resort
Join the Gaylord Texan for the opening reception and help choose the first “Texan Idol!” The audience will have audience response equipment to weigh in your vote on the best act in town! After the stiff competition, we will continue our evening celebration with a dance band where the food and libations will continue.
Doors open to the public at 9pm, so be sure to get there early!
