The BMWCCA Wine Country Tour will assemble in two locations for those in the northern counties and those in the southern

The drive will begin at the Einstein Bagels and Starbucks location in front of "The Strip" in North Canton. This is located on Rt. 77, one exit south of the Akron-Canton Airport.

The drive will leave this location promptly at 9:30, please have a full tank of gas and a full belly.

We will be driving the infamous "Ohio Dragon" which is better known to the locals as Rt. 26 in Southeast Ohio. Lunch will be at the LaFayette Hotel Gun Room in Marietta, OH, which is nestled quietly on the Ohio River, please RSVP, to Jeff Ball at (e-mail JEFFBALL880@netscape.net) as they require reservations for large groups. We'll add a few extras for those last-minute drivers.

The drive will then return to Northeast Ohio via the windy scenic roads of South Central Ohio, ending at a location where you can dine-N-dash, or just dash.

This will be a all-day trip if you choose to remain on the twisty roads of the drive. Alternate return options would be to leave Marietta and take Rt. 77 north, or drive the twisties to Rt. 70, then catch Rt. 77 North.

We are planning to be in Strasburg (north of Dover) around 5:00pm.
