Work Night: Stage built for Nov. 7th Beer & Brats Novemberfest

Monday, October 26th, 2009

This evening a few volunteers got together for an impromptu work session to build a stage for our upcoming Beer & Brats Novemberfest event. Thank you Eric Michel of TS Designs, JT of J&L Bicycle and our very own Nate of Company Shops Market.

These guys offered their time and talent to put together a 12ft x 16ft platform for Lizzy Ross and her band to play on at our Nov 7th event. All of the lumber used in the construction of the stage comes from wood that was salvaged by volunteers during the October Weekend Work Party.
