We are planning an Oktoberfest in Utica on Friday, 18-Sep-2026. If you want to attend, please sign up for a local Oktoberfest brew or bring your own homebrewed example. We will have brats on the grill and sauerkraut cooking. Starts at 5:00 pm. 105 South Front Street, Utica, IN. Attached is a signup sheet so that we don’t end up with duplicates and cover as many offerings the city has as possible. A sixer or a single growler is all that we need of each. https://signup.com/go/imDBaOZ

The deadline is quickly approaching for the entry deadline for the 2026 Kentucky State Fair. Prior to 09-July, entries are only $5. After 09-July the cost will rise to $8 per entry but you still have time to enter. After 16-July the entry deadline will expire and you will be sad because you missed out on this year’s fair. Put it in your calendar for 2027 and plan ahead for next year! If you missed the deadline, all is not lost. You can still sign up to volunteer, judge, or steward to help make this year’s State Fair Homebrew contest…
