Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club - Stillwater, Minnesota

The 4th Annual Brewers Bazaar was another big success.

We had almost 600 people participating and enjoying the beautiful day (and a few beers) on the St. Croix River.  Everyone appeared to enjoy the new venue and the staff of the St. Croix Boat & Packet Company were outstanding to work with.  We appreciated their hard work.

On Saturday May 15th, 2010 from Noon - 5pm aboard the Avalon Riverboat in downtown Stillwater, the Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club raised over $15,000 for our many community service projects.

The Squires Band was rockin the top deck and could be heard throughout downtown while 12 regional brewers were pouring samples of their best brew.

Lift Bridge's Farm Girl, Flat Earth's Black Helicopter Coffee Stout and Brau Brother's Sheephead Ale were to top vote getters at this year's tasting.  Thanks to all the brewers who participated and contributed their time, beer and gifts to the raffle.

In addition, we'd like to thank all our corporate sponsors for supporting this event and a special thank you to the members of the Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club for their hard work in organizing this quality event!
