Socially Distant Scavenger Hunt

WE HAVE OUR WINNERS!

While you are stuck at home and potentially doing a bit of spring cleaning why not play a little game with us? Every spring Sue (Mike & Bev’s mom) and Eileen (Patrick’s mom) would work together to concoct elaborate scavenger hunts for their kids. These scavenger hunts would encompass their houses, outbuildings, orchards, vineyards and would take all day long to complete. (Not a bad way to keep the kids from getting underfoot if you ask us.)

The Williamson family is challenging you to search your home and property for 15 wine related items*. Take a picture of these items and submit them to us via email, Facebook or Instagram. The first person to submit all 15 items by April 30th wins a gift basket valued at $50! But there are still more chances to win, if you find and submit 5 or more items by April 30th your name will be entered to win a coupon for 50% off of one item.

Social Media Scavenger Hunt Items:
1.    Williamson Vineyards wine label
2.    Williamson logo gear (i.e glass, corkscrew, shirt, hat, tumbler, etc.)
3.    Williamson cork
4.    Williamson marketing material (i.e. business card, brochure, ad, etc.)
5.    Wine Book
6.    Wine themed movie
7.    Wine stopper
8.    Wineglass charm (Something that identifies your glass from another.)

10.    Wine Gag Gift
11.    Wine themed apparel
12.    Wine rack/storage
13.    Your most unique or unusual wine tool

*We are looking for 15 seperate items that fit these descriptions. Duplicates will not be accepted. This is a family company so remember to keep your submissions classy folks. 😉

Cultivar Kindness

As our valley grows so does the need for kindness!

After seeing reports in the news on how many of the local homeless shelters and food banks are really hurting right now, the Williamson family and staff decided to collect non-perishable food and personal-care items in lieu of tasting fees during the month of March.

We are calling this promotion “Cultivar Kindness” because we want to encourage people to “grow” kindness in our community. In fact, we specifically chose the Valley Women & Children Shelter, a ministry of the Boise Rescue Mission, because it’s located right here in Canyon County! Valley Shelter is the only emergency shelter for women and children in the Nampa and Western Treasure Valley area. With 66 available beds, their shelter for homeless women and children offers a safe, clean place to sleep, in addition to clothing, meals, and case management.

Guests visiting Williamson Vineyard’s tasting room during the month of March can enjoy one free wine sample* for every non-perishable food or personal-care item they bring in!
*Free samples will be capped at 5 per person.

So come out to the tasting room and sip on delicious wine for a great cause. Just don’t forget to bring your donation!

What can I bring in as a donation?

Non-Perishable Food

  • Any Canned Goods
  • Especially items that would work in a sack lunch (i.e. granola bars, fruit cups, etc.)

Personal-Care/Hygiene Items
(The shelter accepts products for females and males, as some of the young men that come in with their mother need products too. )

  • Hair brushes (The shelter goes through these very fast!)
  • Hotel sample shampoo, conditioner, body wash and bar soap
  • Tooth brushes and paste (Please no mouth wash with alcohol.)
