Bryan has been working with the hotel to work out the options. We have a number of room configuration options and they are offering us right of first refusal.
Bockfest
Fest is March 1 weekend
Judging for homebrew will occur the week before at Libery Home, or possibly a location TBD. Greg Hardman wants us to be downtown, or it could be a part of the Brewery District in OTR.
Rob is planning to register the comp with BJCP this week.
Missing Linck
Returns again in 2025. Brewers will have to signup for yeast, we'll charge $5 per entry as a small club fundraiser. There are virtually no other costs as Urban covers the majority.
Treasurer
Ray says we have some money, less than before August (because of B&S)
Other Business
Esoteric offered to sponsor a homebrew competition. We'll need to work out the details with Brian and gang. Initial thoughts are May, as a replacement / return of Bloat Open. Rob suggested the "Esoteric Invitational"
We need to make a push for membership renewals... AND for members to renew / join AHA. When we have club membership who are also AHA members over 75% we get a BIG rebate on insurance. Household memberships remain at $30/year.
Andy to assist with getting Amy and Mike setup with MC.
