OVERVIEW
Greetings North Bay Cobra members. Our September event promises to be quite special. Don and Terrie (Spenst) Russel will host a Saturday morning cruise through Alexander Valley wine country, stopping at two wineries and ending with a BBQ in Cloverdale. This event is part of a larger celebration (including a car show) in Cloverdale. Cobra members are invited to also show their snakes in the show, for a fee. Details of these events and the wine country cruise and BBQ are found below. Remember that an RSVP is required so that Terrie and Don can plan the BBQ.

Meet at the Shell station at 9:00 am in Windsor, off Hwy. 101 North. Take the Shiloh Road exit (east) and turn left (north) on Hembree to the Shell Station next to a Burger King.

This event is organized by North Bay Cobras and should not be confused with BACC's recurring tour d' vin which is often held this time of the year here in wine country.
