Ohio Wine Producers Association

Description

Donniella Winchell joined the Ohio Wine Producers Association in 1978 and held the position of executive secretary. In 1984, she became the association’s full time director. During the ensuing years she helped build the organization from a fledging cluster of 9 farm wineries to a dynamic group of nearly 65 wineries and several dozen growers. Under her leadership, the industry initiated the Vintage Ohio wine festival, which served as a model for similar events in several states. She has been active nationally with the Winegrowers of America, the American Vintners Association, the National wine Vision strategic planning group and the Wine Market Council. She also serves on several state and local tourism committees, underscoring her belief in both regional tourism and economic development.

Meet in Historic Hall. Delegates from thirty nations met in the first general conference of the League of Red Cross Societies held in the famous Salle de l'Alabama in Geneva. It was in this hall that the treaty was concluded between the United States and Great Britain putting to an end the dispute arising out of the Civil War over the Battleship Alabama. It was claimed that the vessel had been built by the British for the confederate states and had sunk union boats. A claim for reparation was filed and the dispute settled in this hall.
