If it’s a Wine Walk why can’t I walk around outside business with my glass full ?

Can I bring my baby or dog?
Sure, you can bring your baby to the wine walk. Please just be cautious with strollers as many of the businesses participating as tasting sites are somewhat small. Service animals are always allowed, however pets are not allowed in any establishment serving food.
Does my friend who will not be drinking need a ticket?
