Thank you to everyone who joined us for this year's Craft B**r & Cocktail Dinner! What an incredible evening of great drinks, great company, and great support for Scouting.

Because of your generosity, participation, and enthusiasm, the event was a tremendous success. We are grateful to our attendees, donors, volunteers, Chippewa River Distillery & Chippewa Brewing Co., the Eau Claire Event District and all who helped make the night possible.

Your support helps provide life-changing experiences for local Scouts, allowing them to learn, grow, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
