couple of months away, start planning now.
Friday through Sunday August 5-7

27302 Ranch Road
Richmond, MN 56368
(Near Cold Springs, not far from St. Cloud)
Keep reading for more campout details: Please let me know ahead of time of
you're planning on coming. This will help us plan, especially for Saturday
dinner. E-Mail tsarne(a)msn.com <mailto:tsarne@msn.com> to indicate your
plan to attend, at least a week in advance would be appreciated.
Camp Details:
* El Rancho Manana is a multi use site. For the campout we have a
large group space, primitive, portable toilets, community water spigot, no
electricity,
* If you want more luxury, they do have more developed sites, call the
campground to find out more information and rates on those.
* El Rancho has a variety of other perks including a beach, shower
house, water bike rentals, horseback riding etc., all on site, only a short
walk or car ride from our group site.
* Our location is an open space, not a lot of shade, if you have a
portable canopy, you may want to bring it.
Cost and Registration Information:
* Cost is $25 per adult for the two nights. If you wish to extend
your stay before or after, you can do that at a cost of $10 per adult for
the extra night.
* Please call El Rancho for reservations at 320.597.2740 and state you
are with the Minnesota Homebrewers Camp-Out. The sooner the better.
* There will also be a minimal charge for those participating in
Saturday's dinner. Final costs will be determined on site, and will be
somewhere between $5 and $10 per adult, no charge for children.
What to Expect
* If you've been to the campout, you know it's primarily a time to
kick back and enjoy good beer and fun beer drinkers.
* Feel free to participate as you wish
* Bring beer to share. Club jockey boxes will be available so kegs are
welcome and encouraged
* The campfires are always accompanied by the passing around of great
beers for all to sample. Start thinking now about what delectable delights
you'll bring in your cooler.
* The host clubs cook dinner Saturday evening, for all other meals,
you'll want to make sure you bring food for yourself and/or family
* Of course, bring your own camping gear and chairs
* Well behaved dogs welcome
Special Events:
Over the years some traditions have developed and some new ones are added:
* Master of Malt: This fun competition between clubs has been held at
the campout since 1992 (yes this will be year 25). Each club can enter up
to four brews: one for ALES, one for LAGERS, one for BELGIANS, and one for
MEAD/CIDERS. There will be awards for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in all categories
and best of all, you will be competing for the coveted title of Master of
Malt! The win is recorded forever in history for your club AND you get to
spend a full year with the prestigious Master of Malt trophy. It is kind of
like the Stanley Cup (but not really)!
* Sour Hour: A tart happy hour. Sometime in the lull between the
Master of Malt competition and dinner we will get together and break out
some sour beers. It is a very casual thing. Bring and share if you like
sours.
* Bloody Mary Mornings (okay, maybe early afternoon for later risers):
Some of us like to start the day with a good Bloody Mary (remember the old
saying, "you can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.") This
is another low key event, if you would like to begin your day this way,
bring your own mix and vodka to begin, but also bring one Bloody Mary
Builder to share with the group (pickles, beef sticks, cheese, celery, the
list is endless). Let's see how creative we can get.
* Saturday Dinner: Saturday's dinner will be prepared and hosted by
the Cloudy Town Brewers and Northern Alestars. This years dinner will be
pulled pork with salad and desserts to accompany. So we can plan for dinner
pleased indicate your participation by e-mailing <mailto:tsarne@msn.com>

If any of this sounds like fun, you'll want to join us at the campout! See
you there.
Cheers!
