Fall 2011 Update
theslats October 20th, 2011
Hello All,
Better late than never, here is a rundown on The Club’s activities.
Our annual Halloween Party will take place on Sunday, October 30th, at 2 PM. The theme this year will be “Fairy Tales”. Please bring a food dish to share and the club will provide desert and beer. Frank did a bang up job on this year’s beer lineup. It includes; New Belgium Hoptober, Deschutes’ Mirror Pond, and the traditional Rogue Dead Guy Ale. Also for your dancing and listening pleasure, The Galaxy Forrest will perform for us (tips encouraged). They put on a great show. There will be a small $5 cover charge to help pay for the facility. Remember, you don’t have to dress in fairy tale costume, come any way you like. The Halloween Party will be at the New Sweden Hall (Grange).
We will also be awarding the ribbons from the Eastern Idaho State Fair Homebrew Competition at the party. This is a good opportunity to sign up new members.
Share this note with your friends and club members you know so we are sure to get the word out. Our old email system was wiped out by our webhost and we (Matt) are getting a new system up and running. Help us make it a good one.
Other upcoming Events:
In November we hope to do a holiday beer and wine tasting to get you all ready for the season. Frank will present the wines and Bob will present the beers that will enhance your holiday table. Bring a six or a bottle of your favorite and we will taste and discuss. We will go over food pairings and after dinner drinks. Watch for the details.
In December, there will be a charity “Santa Crawl”. We all dress up in Santa gear and roam around downtown IF. There may be drinking involved. You admission into the Santa Herd will be a donation for charity. It started last year and was great fun.
January will be the annual Holiday Party. The tentative date is January 14th. All ways a good time, it is also time for elections and dues payments. Frank has the beer lined up; Sierra Nevada Celebration and Full Sail Wreck the Halls.
February is St. Valentine’s Day Party on February 12th. The committee is hard at work to make this another special occasion.
St. Patrick’s Day Party will be on …St. Patrick’s Day! Friday March 17th! Frank has scored a half barrel of Beamish. If you haven’t had Beamish on St. Pat’s Day you have missed out. Be sure to put this one on your calendar.
If you have questions or suggestions email them to bob@ MBBF.org.
Hope to see you all at the party,
The Board of the High Desert Brewers Association
