The winery group, formerly known as the “South Okanagan Winery Association” is looking for a new name. Apparently the “SOWA” title was not inclusive enough for all the wineries involved in the region. So, back to the boardroom they went and after a few meetings they came up with “OODWCA” (Oliver, Osoyoos Desert Wine Country Association). OODWCA? E’gad, that’s the worst name ever! It sounds like a rare Australian rodent.
So, I challenge the Urban Diner braintrust to help these kind wine-making folks get a real name. One with some panache to help market their excellent wine. And to sweeten the deal, they are offering a kick-ass prize to the winner:
Be the person to submit the winning new name of the association and you and a guest will be treated like royalty at the upcoming Banée. If you have not heard of Banée, it is Oliver’s secret wine festival which takes place in the Spring each year; in 2009 it’s on April 17 and 18.
