The Great Okanagan Beer Fest is a three day festival, offering patrons a mix of exclusive cask events, beer and brewing seminars, and a beer sampling main event pouring for an estimated 2,500 beer drinkers on Saturday, May 9th 2015.
On Sunday the Lake Country Museum and Patio Café is offering guided tours of the Museum and Wentworth Cabin, as well as scavenger hunts for kids and old fashioned candy at the store.
