Join the fun on 10/2 and 3

Come celebrate with fine German beers on tap including, of course, the special Oktoberfest beer. Savor Bratwurst, potato pancakes, Leberkäse, sauerkraut, potato salad, pretzels, and fine German deserts… all washed down with a cool draft. With the band playing great Oktoberfest music, surrounded by lederhosen, dirndls and dancers performing the famed Schuhplattler dances you’ll think you’re in Munich.

Bring your family..Tell your friends!


Oktoberfest Workers are needed.

Many of the members of the Oktoberfest Committee are Friday night regulars. If you'd like to contribute your help to this two day event, please contact us or better yet, stop in Friday night and discuss where your skills can best be utilized. It's a great way to support the club and meet new people. Why not get out of your comfort zone and get involved? The shifts are short, structured, and *fun*; we can attest to that, having been past Oktoberfest volunteers ourselves. If you can help promote the event in any way, please contact us. As a not-for-profit ethnic club, we depend upon grassroots involvement by the members.
