Orange County Welcomes Second Annual Corks and Caps

By: Orange County Economic Development

The Orange County Office of Economic Development and Tourism is pleased to launch the second annual Corks and Caps marketing program and summer contest. Corks and Caps is a passport - style marketing initiative featuring Orange County ’ s many award - winning wineries and breweries. It was designed to encourage visitors to create their own beverage trail and sample the County ’ s burgeoning craft beverage offerings. Corks and Caps plans to leverage interest in Virginia ’ s growing agriculture and viticulture to extend stays and increase visitation at our local attractions. This year, the program includes local transportation partners to encourage safe travel, and a social media contest where participants can use the #corksandcapsva to win an Orange County Experience Package! Corks and Caps invites guests to collect a stamp from (5) of the (16) participating businesses and mail in their completed passport to the Office of Economic Development and Tourism to receive a FREE 2023 Corks and Caps T - shirt (while supplies last). One hundred percent (100%) of Orange County ’ s nine (9) wineries, and three (3) breweries are participating in this summer ’ s program, and are excited to open their doors and pour another round for Orange County visitors. The 2023 Corks and Caps contest will run Memorial Day through Labor Day 2023.
