The fabulous Branch 606 Meat Draw happens every Saturday at 5 pm. Everyone welcome -- so come check it out and try your luck!
The weekly Steak and W**e winning entry is pulled at the conclusion of the Meat Draw, and entries can be purchased at your convenience throughout the week, and up until the time of the draw on Saturday.
Following the draws, there will be a dinner available for purchase.
Kathy advised me of the menu earlier this afternoon and it sounds delicious ---
Roast Beef on A Bun served with Potato Salad
Includes Dessert

Served around 6:15 pm-ish or so (whenever the draws are finished).
After dinner you can dance the night away to the wonderful music of David Wildsmith, in the Branch 606 Clubroom from 7 - 11 pm.
Everyone welcome, no cover, so do feel free to invite some friends to join you.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18th
Branch opens at 1 pm.
It's the Sunday of the Open Mic at Branch 606 this weekend, and though I don't have direct details, I have seen some "social media" posts around the interwebs that there will be a *guest host* for this Sunday's open mic.
It appears that the talented Steve Staneland is stepping into the "hosting shoes" for the October 18th Open Mic.
If you frequent the Branch 606 Open Mic Sundays, you will recognize Steve's name -- and it is sure to be another Sunday of the impromptu and magical music that happens at open mics.
Everyone welcome. No cover.
Sign up starts at 1:30 pm., with Open Mic usually beginning around 2 pm.
Drop in, sign up, and take to the Clubroom stage, or hang out and listen to some amazing musicians as they jam together, and do feel free to invite some friends, as it is a great way to end a weekend!

And NOW for the reminders!
The Early Bird Membership Renewal Campaign is currently happening -- and renewing your membership as an "early bird" offers you the opportunity to win back the cost of your membership fee.
This campaign has been running since September, and it will conclude at the end of November, so it is about halfway through.
Drop by the branch and see Janet Currah, Jennifer Merritt, or ask any one of the lovely Branch 606 Bar Stewards for details.
