Pre rally activities for early arrivals include:<br />
Rappahannock river cruise to Ingleside winery - The<br />
narrated cruise departs Hoskins Creek at Tappahannock<br />
at 10 A.M. You’ll want to bring your binoculars, so you<br />
can get a close-up look at our rare, magnificent national<br />
symbol, the bald eagle. These magnificent birds nest in<br />
the trees and cliffs beside the Rappahannock. Once at<br />
Ingleside, you can enjoy a buffet style lunch or take your<br />
own picnic to enjoy in the courtyard. After lunch, you<br />
are given a tour of the winery, where you can see the<br />
wine making process first hand. But, the real treat of any<br />
winery, is of course is the wine. A tasting of some of the<br />
premier wines that Ingleside has to offer follows the tour.<br />
The winery also boasts one of most unique gifts shops in<br />
the area. When you visit Ingleside via the Capt. Thomas<br />
you also can benefit from special discount pricing when<br />
you purchase wine.<br />
Afterwards, enjoy a relaxing cruise back down the<br />
Rappahannock River; while you enjoy your glass of wine<br />
take all of the scenery that the river has to offer.<br />
