October means Oktoberfest! The Cranford Jaycees are sponsoring their first Oktoberfest,  right here in town, on Saturday, October 5^th, from 5:00 – 10:00 PM, at Union County Community College (lot 5A across from Sperry Conservatory). The event will feature the Firehouse Polka Band and the Brother John Brown Band, and an undoubtedly good time!

Prices are $35 per ticket, $350 for reserved tables of 10, $1,000 for reserved tables of 30 . . . . and tickets are by advanced sale ONLY.  The price of the ticket includes beer and entertainment.  (Food is sold separately at the event.)  To purchase tickets, call (201)214-3296, or email  at Cranfordjaycees@yahoo.com

The Cranford Jaycees have combined networking, community activity, individual development, training, and making friends and connections for the past half of a century.  Visit their website at CranfordJaycees/ to learn more about their community service, and more about this event.

The Jaycees will donate all proceeds from this event to a Cranford gem– The Cranford First Aid Squad.   The Cranford First Aid Squad is based entirely upon dedicated volunteers who wish to serve the community. This life-saving, FREE,  9-1-1 service depends upon operating costs being covered by donations from residents to fund and maintain equipment and medical supplies.  Learn more about them, or about becoming a member, at Cranford First Aid.

So, really, that means this is beer drinking for a cause.  That’s right.  Filling your mug would actually be providing a service to your community.

“Put some beer in your bod for the squad!!!!”
