Brew Fest by the Bay

The Back Packs for Kids, weekend nutrition program for school children in the Chimacum school district is sponsoring it's 3rd annual Brew Fest by the Bay. Open from 12 noon to 4:00 PM on Saturday, October 7th it will be held at the Port Ludlow Bay Club at 120 Spinnaker Place in Port Ludlow.

The $25 ticket allows you to taste beer from 6 different local breweries. This includes a fresh grilled, loaded brats with peanuts at the tables. The $10 designated driver ticket gives you the same thing with your choice of Bedford Sodas instead of beer. There will also be a dessert table with a variety of desserts for purchase.

While you enjoy your beer and brats, you will be entertained by music of the Alternators, back by popular demand. Throughout the event, door prizes will be announced and silent auction items will be displayed for you to browse and bid on if you choose.

The Backpacks For Kid programs packs between 60-90 bags of food a week during the school year. These food bags are sent home with kids who are on the school nutrition program, but need additional food to get them though the weekend. In addition, we stock food shelves for the high school, and this year will be sponsoring a summer nutrition program in cooperation with the Jefferson County Library in Chimacum. We estimate it costs about $250 per year per child. The Brew Fest, along with private donations, is the primary source of support for this program.

Please join us this year for a fun day of beer tasting, food and music with the satisfaction of knowing your are supporting hungry kids in your area!
