Item Description

Imagine a gorgeous late summer afternoon lounging around a spectacular pool gazing out over vines heavy with grapes ready for harvest. Grab a game of tennis, or slip in a snooze under the shady oaks knowing that later you can stroll down the lane to taste a couple of wines at a neighboring vineyard... But uh oh, what about the kids? How will you ever manage to indulge in this fantasy without finding something to occupy them? Now imagine your children chasing their friends around on the grass or "dive bombing" into the pool, sharing stories about summer and being reunited with their CSB classmates in a kids' paradise. Did we mention bike riding? Take the training wheels off on this safe, dead-end lane and let self-proclaimed pro-riding instructor "Pop-a-Wheelie" Rob teach them to pedal with pride. (Pads, helmets and patient instruction included).

Imagine this glorious afternoon stretching out before you after a sumptuous BBQ grilled by our own Master of the Grill, Rob Birmingham, complete with a bounty of fresh, local produce and plenty of Valley vino. What could be a more perfect way of catching up after the long summer break than this splendid day trip to Napa with friends and family, enjoying the best of the wine country and the unforgettable hospitality of Cynthia and Rob Birmingham at their spectacular St Helena spread?  So pick a weekend day in early September, find 8 or 9 lucky families to share this very special day in the country and have a reason to look forward to the end of summer!
