Chautauqua Rails to Trails invites residents to explore the Webb Trail in Mayville while enjoying delicious wines at their fifth annual Wine Walk to be held Saturday, July 29th. The event will begin at 2:00 pm, with walkers starting in fifteen-minute increments until 5 p.m. The Wine Walk starts at the Webb Trail trailhead, located to the left of Boxcar Barney's (13 W Lake Rd.) in Mayville.

Presale tickets are available for $35 per person on the Chautauqua Rails to Trails Facebook page or online at https://www.chaurtt.org. Designated Driver tickets are also offered at $10 per person.

The event will feature six wine stops. Each stop will include a dry and sweet option as well as a food pairing. Wine sponsors include 2 Ames, Johnson Estate, Liberty Vineyards, Mazza Five & 20, Merritt Estate Winery, and Willow Creek Winery.

Several musical artists have volunteered to perform along the trail, including Bill Ward, Claude Shuckers, Derek Houser, Marcie Bird, and Sarah James. The event will also feature a dice hike as well as several raffles.

A rain date of Aug. 5 has been set for the event. The event will run as planned if it is cloudy or just very lightly raining. If the day is expected to be very rainy with storms, we will postpone the event. Follow the Chautauqua Rails to Trails Facebook page for more updates (www.facebook.com/chautauquarailstotrails).
