OCWS members are already busy working on the 2009 Commercial
Wine Competition, the flagship event for our Society. This  year's
competition is scheduled for June 6 and 7 at the Hilton Hotel in Costa
Mesa. 2009 marks the Society's 33rd year holding this highly-acclaimed
competition of California wines.
The Commercial Competition provides us with the wine inventory that is
served at the Orange County Fair and revenue from those sales offsets
the cost of conducting the Competition and also helps to support the goals
of the Wine Society.
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce this year's chair of
the event, David Hirstein. David is a long-time member and Past President
of the OCWS. He is joined by an amazing committee of seasoned veterans
of the Commercial Competition. Below are some important dates to put on
your calendar and details on the volunteer opportunities available for
you to join us for this key OCWS event.
