Are y’all ready for a good ole’ time at Sleepy Creek!! Come dance, rope, eat, and be merry. Dust off your dancing shoes, because The Dapper Dan Band and Sleepy Creek Vineyards (8254 E. 1425 North Rd, Fairmount) are coming together to throw y’all a party in the Barn. These dances are so much fun! Laurie will teach a few basic line dance steps at first band break. Grab a partner or some friends and scoot your way to Sleepy Creek. Come enjoy your favorite Sleepy Creek libations (wine, wine slushies, beer (domestic and craft), and specialty cocktails).

We are twisting things up with a dummy roping contest. Each contestant will get three chances to successfully rope the dummy, and only one at the end will be the winner. We will provide a couple ropes, but you are welcome to bring your own rope. The winner of each barn bash roping contest will win a Belt Buckle and come back to compete at the End-of-Year Barn Bash Finale on December 20, 2025. At the finale, the format will be the same… each contestant will get three chances to successfully rope the dummy. Winner takes all. In the case of a tie, we will go with sudden death…. single chances - first one to rope wins! The ultimate champion will win a one night stay for two guests in our Bed & Wine valued at $300.00 plus a bottle of your favorite Sleepy Creek wine.
