SAAZtoberfest was a fabulous day of beers, games and amazing food!! Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate!!!
Learn to Homebrew Day was observed by many of us at Woof, Wag and Wiggle and money was raised for Coastal Boxer Rescue, thanks to everyone who volunteered and attended. Many also celebrated this wondrous day at their homes earlier in the week. Yay homebrewing and boxer rescue!!
Things that are about to happen:
We will need more BJCP judges next year, anyone interested please start the process now as it does take some time to get certified!! First step is a multiple choice test online, study materials can be found here. The second step is an in person tasting exam. Dates and locations can be found on the BJCP site.
Nominations for SAAZ 2025 board positions are here!! Would you like to get more involved in our local club shenanigans? A board position is the perfect way!!! If you are interested in a board position, nominations are coming up in November with elections to be held in December!!! Consider a seat on the board to make a larger contribution to our club. It takes a lot of folks to keep this thing running….Pres, VP, secretary, treasurer, events coordinator, communications and education are the current officer positions. If anyone would like to run or nominate another worthy person for such a position, please contact info@saaz.org. Voting will be via email and at the Winter Party.
