Beach Benefits and Halloween on the Horizon

This past weekend saw St John Brewers out at the beach, Oppenheimer Beach to be exact, celebrating some of our local customers and their impressive recent accomplishment. Tory Lane and Sara Stephens swam around St John this summer, completing the 35 mile swim in stages, a leg or two each weekend. Motivation like that definitely deserves a party! Beer, food (donated and prepared by Woody's Seafood Saloon), music and games seemed like the right way to celebrate, even better if the proceeds go to charity. In this case all proceeds went to Kids And The Sea (K.A.T.S.), a sailing program based in Coral Bay. After Tory and Sara dominated the beer pong tournament (they're great at a lot of stuff), they even donated all their prize money to K.A.T.S. as well. It was a beautiful day, a great party, and an example of all the things that make St John so special. In total $840 was raised for K.A.T.S.

Next on the horizon is HALLOWEEN! We at St John Brewers are big fans of this holiday - between getting an excuse to dress up and getting to watch the kids trick-or-treat in Mongoose Junction, what's not to like? This year marks our first annual Hallows Eve Ball, on Friday night. Costumes encouraged and rewarded, of course. Lots of pictures soon come, to be sure.
