History Class is turning THREE YEARS OLD! (Watch the video above for all the deails!) It's been an incredible few years, thanks to folks like YOU This year we are celebrating in April, because that was when we officially started serving this community in 2020 with curbside crowlers. It all started on Park Avenue behind the brewery, so we are having a carnival there to celebrate, and you're invited! We will be raising funds for The Science & Discovery Center, so come out to support this local charity.
This is a family-friendly event featuring carnival games and entertainment for both adults and kids. Have a blast with axe-throwing, whack-a-mole, skeeball, basketball, and other midway games to win age appropriate prizes (beer for adults, toys for kids!), plus enjoy carnival snacks, balloon art, magic, airbrush tattoos, and of course a big dunk-tank to dunk your friends! It's free to attend, and you can play any of the games for a cash donation to Science & Discovery Center.
We love this town and the stories of how this community was built. It was built by ordinary people who gathered and did extraordinary things together. We're excited to tell these stories around food and drink. We want to be a place our community can come gather, meet each other, support progress by supporting each other, and help Bay County realize it's untapped potential.
