Mayor Ron Hovanes was on hand recently for the ribbon cutting ceremony at Montakarn Estate Winery. His speech was a warm embrace to the entrepreneurs who enter the valley and set up businesses. \u201cWelcome to the heart of the South Okanagan Valley,\u201d he stated. \u201cWe have changed a lot but we still are all about farming and agriculture. We still are all about creating crops and producing quality products and I\u00a0 know yours won\u2019t be any different \u2013 congratulations.\u201d We would like to thank the mayor for opening our event and we are happy he could attend. We would also like to thank Dennis Walker for being our MC and putting us on his new radio station, as well as Rick Wood who got the crowd toe-tapping and swinging with his non-stop playing. But most of all we want to thank the people of Oliver, friends and family, and the entire valley who attended our opening. Those were the people who brought the excitement and ambiance to our grand opening. My family can\u2019t thank them all enough for their support.<\/span><\/p>\n
