Country Music's Nathan Chance Helps us Celebrate the Working Girl No Labor Day with a bit of Texas Flair

Texas born Kathy Charlton thought what better way to celebrate than to put a little Good O'l Texas flair on this years event. Ya'll are invited for a full day of celebrating including a barn dance with Seattle's premier country band Nathan Chance and some down home style chili.

All Day Tandem Skydive...

It's pretty cool looking down on the Olympic Mountains. Become a member of the Working Girl First Jump Club with a commemorative tee shirt and a "toast" of wine after you jump (only 4 spots left) Available Jump times with be scheduled throughout the day. Jumpers will meet with the Skydiving Team at the winery before heading to the airport. Jumpers are invited to spend the whole day at the winery and enjoy the music and other Working Girl "No Labor Day" activities.


Afternoon Music 2:00pm

Dance and sing along with local favorite band "Final Approach" Could the band name be any more perfect for skydiving. Dance and sing along with hits from the 50's through the 70's.

Food.. Texas Chili, You bet

You can't have great country music without Texas style chili. Joy of Joy’s Wine Bistro has taken on the ‘chili challenge’ and will be serving throughout the afternoon and evening.

Nathan Chance in Concert

Since the inception of "Nathan Chance" in May of 2006, the boys have opened for National-caliber Acts such as Kenny Chesney, Martina McBride, Shedaisy, Brooks n' Dunn and most recently.... George Strait. Their following continues to grow in the northwest. Come see for yourself how two small town boys have managed to capture the attention of big crowds. Advance Tickets are recommended.

It’s White Wednesday Somewhere


OK, we jinxed ourselves... it is suppose to snow this week... please read on. Kathy


Friday, November 23, 1:50 p.m.

For those of you that are new to our mailing list, the winery was closed last year for 6 days at the end of November because of heavy snow. In order to “shovel up” some much needed business I sent out a White Wednesday case offer with us paying for your shipping.

After much discussion, Molly, Libby and I had nixed White Wednesday this year. While the forecast is kinda yucky there’s nothing ‘white’ on tap so it will be business as usual. And since we’re so appreciative of your support this past year it just didn’t feel right to add another promotional email to your inbox.

But, I’ve changed my mind. (…that doesn’t sound real good but just read on and you’ll understand).

My husband Ralph and I had to go to Seattle Wednesday. But rather than fighting the horrific holiday traffic leaving the city, we decided to make it special and planned a “date night.”

It was special. Add Thanksgiving morning with breakfast in bed and the paper and I was in heaven.

But when Ralph dropped the paper on the bed, it was a good thing I wasn’t holding my coffee. The weight of it hitting the bed actually bounced me in the air!

According to the news, this was the thickest Thanksgiving Seattle Times ever… easily 5 inches of store advertisements. I was blown away.

Then during our drive home to Sequim and family, I made an innocent comment, something like “We should be home in record time ‘cause no one will be on the road.” Was I ever wrong! Interstate 5 was a parking lot.

I kept wondering if folks were going to have tailgate parties and camp out in the parking lots of their favorite stores so they could be in line for the 4AM sales!

What’s this got to do with White Wednesday?

Well, this year we may not be stuck in snow but maybe you are. Or worse, snarled in traffic like we were.

So as I noted above, I’ve changed my mind. Let the Working Girls Elves help you out this year.

It’s called “White Wednesday Somewhere” and you can celebrate by once again selecting a case of wine, taking your 10% case discount AND letting Olympic Cellars pick up the shipping!

It is our gift to you for all your continued support. Mix or match any of your favorite wines including our holiday Cranberry Jubilee. (The only exception is Working Girl White , which is limited to the next bottling)

Since the weather will only get colder we need to get your shipment moving now. So “White Wednesday Somewhere” ends on Friday, November 30. Order on-line, respond to this mail or call the ELF-LINE at 360-452-0160 to place your order.

And if you’re within driving distance of the winery, you can celebrate “White Wednesday Somewhere” at the winery Wednesday, November 28, with a one-day-only, 25% case discount special when you take your wines with you (that’s your average overall savings if we had to ship it to you).

Happy Holidays,

Molly, Libby, Benoit and Kathy

Ps. I almost forgot. We’ve been saving 14 cases of our double gold 2003 Dungeness Red Lemberger. If you would like a case or a few bottles in your mixed case, be sure to note that in the comments section of the order form.
