Downtown Loves Dads

This event has passed

Happy Father’s Day!

Who loves to party?!? Join us as we celebrate Dads for our inaugural “Downtown Loves Dads”

A Beer Garden on the Plaza for dads hosted by Hailey’s Harp & Pub and…

…an afternoon of games (inflatable hatchet throwing, bungee runs), interactive contests, and music.

Get a clean up with our friends at Razorsharp Barbershop & Shave Parlor and Main Street Barbers as you enjoy the festivities.

Come out to our very first (and likely not last!) air guitar contest at 7pm!

Join our friends from The Commuters alongside local community judges (including Robert Strauss, Justin Hopkins, Daniel Levine, & others) as you rock the night out!

So practice your best air guitar moves and get ready to rock out!

Stop by and meet local beer expert, John Holl. John is the author of several books including Drink Beer, Think Beer: Getting to the Bottom of Every Pint and The American Craft Beer Cookbook. He is the senior editor of Craft Beer and Brewing Magazine and the co-host of Steal This Beer, a podcast. His work has appeared in the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, Wine Enthusiast and more. John has lectured on the culture and history of beer and judged beer competitions around the world.

So come on out for food, drinks, music, games & more!
