Please
mark your
calendars
for the 2010
annual meeting
The
annual Wine
and Grape
Policy Conference
in Washington,
D.C. is an
important
opportunity
for members
of both organizations
to discuss
and evaluate
Federal policy
issues of
interest to
our industry,
and to communicate
our stances
directly to
Members of
Congress and
the Administration.
These meetings
play an important
role in the
critical process
of relationship
building which
is central
to our mission
of favorably
influencing
policy outcomes.
It is also
a great opportunity
for wine industry
leaders from
across the
country to
network with
each other
in formal
and informal
settings.
We hope that
you will join
us in March
for this very
important
