It’s October, and you know what that means. In a few weeks, you’ll be at a wild party, dressed up as a Naughty something, a Zombie other, or a Naughty Zombie something-or-other. Your kids will be out trick-or-treating, dressed up like their most cherished heroes — Eddy Merckx, Pam Reed, Aung San Suu Kyi, Greg Boyle… the food and drink will flow, and the party will go on. All. Night. Long. I am so excited, I keep forgetting to breathe.
However, it’s just October 2, and there’s a whole MONTH between us and Halloween. Sure, we can break out the cotton cobwebs and other decorations and get our costumes and buy candy, but that still leaves us with 28  days of agony while we wait for the Big Night. Luckily, our German friends came up with Oktoberfest. Which is awfully nice of them, because this gives us something to do while waiting for Halloween. Something that involves Beer. What can be better?
Our friends at The Factory in Bixby Knolls are doing Oktoberfest next Saturday, October 9, from 9am till 1am.
All the coolest people are getting there at 9 and staying till they get kicked out at 1am, but if you can’t hang the whole time, it’s ok. The party really starts at 9:45am, when the Factory teams up with the New Belgium Beer Ranger for a bike ride around Bixby Knolls and Virginia Country Club. Despite the beer, this will be a casual-paced, family-friendly ride. And the first 15 riders to arrive get free t-shirts, and all adult participants get $3 of Factory Dollars.
Go to Facebook and find The Factory’s Page to learn more and RSVP.
