The Grapehound Wine Tour® is an event, featuring about forty wineries, brew pubs, and distilleries, with wine tasting, food, music, lakes, waterfalls, and a huge vendor tent filled with greyhound vendors from a dozen states. Different activities throughout the week take place at various host wineries and other locations, such as Taughannock Falls State Park.
Blue Ridge Greyhound Adoption (BRGA) is a racing-neutral, non-profit greyhound adoption organization serving the entire Northern Virginia and adjacent areas east of the Blue Ridge Mountains. BRGA was founded in May, 2005 in Leesburg, Virginia. BRGA is dedicated to finding responsible, loving homes for retired racing greyhounds. Our goal is to promote public awareness about what excellent pets these elegant dogs make. We work closely with other greyhound adoption organizations to ensure that no retired racing greyhound is left behind.
