Believe it or not, Oktoberfest 2025 is FOUR months away. Tonight was the information/ registration meeting. September 11 thru 14, is the dates. Please jot down the dates.

Last year was amazing! Best year EVER! We had a new setup, added a new popper, and great volunteers.

WE NEED YOU! We need some tall people who are strong and can lift the kettle handles to be our cooks. Eveyone is welcome. Please contact me if you have questions or have a time or date that will work for you.
Thanks for always supporting us as we honor my Justin's memory.

Well we did it! Another Ofest is in the books. It was amazing! Thursday and Friday were abit slower than years past . However, Saturday and Sunday were insane! We could not keep it on the shelves! In fact we had to keep a list of who was waiting for what. People were very understanding. They know it's worth the wait! Only two people were not willing to wait and huffed off. Their loss. The amazing volunteers who showed up and keep us running are so important. I don't want to forget any one so I'm just saying ....YOU ARE LOVED! Looking forward....New larger and faster popper are ordered. Oh silly me! What you really want to know....$13500.00!
