The New Tasting Room at Stover Hall

Feb 17, 2025

In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael features Gina Hilliard, President of the Luray Page Chamber of Commerce, and Christina Grieve from Stover Hall.

Christina describes Stover Hall as a four seasons wedding venue operational since 2014 and notes that February remains the only month without hosted weddings due to the unpredictable weather. She then elaborates on their newly inaugurated tasting room, a collaborative effort with Ducard Vineyards, which aims to utilize the property beyond weddings by offering wine, cider, and hosting various smaller events such as dinner parties and comedy nights.

Further, Christina shares how Stover Hall is integrating into the community through events like karaoke nights, pop-up markets, and dance lessons, including both ballroom and line dancing. These events are augmented by partnerships with different vendors and food trucks to enhance the visitor experience. Christina also underscores their commitment to supporting nonprofit organizations by hosting events like the upcoming gala for Choices.

Gina expands on the importance of Chamber networking events, such as their business after hours, which facilitate connections between local businesses. She also highlights the Chamber's planned trips, recounting a successful trip to Italy and announcing an upcoming trip to Greece. Gina discusses additional Chamber activities, including job fairs, women’s social events, and various community support initiatives aiming to fortify local businesses and engage community members.
