Then, November 20th–DOUBLE Social, at club members’ breweries.  First we’ll stop at u4ic (5:30), then at Roets Jordan Brewery (7:30).  Homebrew is welcome at both, since these will be private events for just us.  Family-friendly.

Saturday, December 14th.  The holiday party will be back at the training room at SUMMIT!  Club member Jim LaRoque will perform with his band, The Cheese Bots.  More later, but think about a 6:00 arrival and 7:00 potluck.  Family friendly!
