Born and Brewed

We had a booth and distributed homebrew materials. We had a raffle and raised $50 for Easter Seals Foundation. Overall, it was a good event, but we found some things we can do better next time.

Buffalo Brew Club Camp out
October 8-10th Roper Lake,

The Buffalo Club was camping out at Roper Lake State Park (http://www.azstateparks.com/parks/ROLA/index.html). One of the families that rented a cabin is well….moving to Germany (Pat and Michelle Fry)! So if you’re not doing anything during Columbus Day weekend (October 8 – 10) their cabin is available.

The cost is $145 ($70 a night plus reservation fee $5). Check-in will be 08 October (Saturday) and Check-out is 10 October (Monday). The Cabin is Coyote (Gila Loophttp://www.azstateparks.com/parks/ROLA/map.html) and it’s shaping up to be a great time. Lots of Homebrew and BBQ…how can anything go wrong (famous last words….)? And trust me….it’s not really camping…I mean, we’re in cabins and all.

If you want to join in on the fun, please join us. We’re on the Gila Loop and there are plenty of opening.
