Our Annual Eq-Wine Ride is a trail ride for local horseback riders to attend with their friends and horses. It's an opportunity to ride on the beautiful trails of CBP and sample selections of local wines, ciders and craft beverages along the way. Riders are also tasked with completing obstacles along the way to make "wine". Riders try their hand at obstacles such as smashing grapes or putting the cork on the bottle. Entries include the trail ride, a passport, a lanyard, a custom wine glass, samplings of beverages and entries into raffle prize drawings. Our annual Eq-Wine Ride is hosted at Cracker Box Palace on the last Saturday of July.
