AND!!!
 
If you're looking for something to do AFTER the club meeting, we are celebrating Beth's birthday in our back yard with music by MICHAEL MONROE. 
 
Michael is a "band in his own mind" - he plays ALL the parts individually LIVE, then looping them so it becomes a sonic landscape.  Thus technology itself becomes an instrument in Michael’s concerts.  It’s hard to imagine it – you have to hear it yourself, but Michael Monroe really is a “One Man Band!” 
 
Potluck at 5pm, music at 7pm.  RSVP if you're coming.
 
Thanks!

First, HUGE thanks to Eric B. for organizing all of this!
 
Second, Byggvir's (the contest at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival) is accepting entries and judges/stewards online from August 1-23rd.  The website will be up and running by then (Wilbur is currently in Iowa on a bike trip).  But Eric is correct, please bring your entries to the meeting with the paperwork filled out.  Two bottles, $5, see attached list for the categories.  We are highly encouraging people to take a stab at brewing historic styles.  There will be medals for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places.  Best of Show, and first and second runner up will get pairs of very nice handmade mugs.  Those who sign up to help out to judge/steward/assist will get into the Renaissance Festival for free on those day(s).  Talk to me on Saturday if you have any questions.
 
Also, just a reminder that Jeff and Cathie Williamson have arranged for us to have a ROAST PIG at the meeting.  Please bring something potluck to share.  Please bring a chair, in case it is nice enough to take the feast outside!
 
Meeting is from 1-4 pm.  See you there!
 
Gera
