The Rushmore German Club is teaming up with Main St. Square and the Ale Riders homebrew club at the 1st annual Bierbörse (Beer Market) located at the newly opened Main St. Square from 1:30 pm until 10pm.
So what's a Bierbörse? Basically, this is a beerfest, and you can't have a fest without some Germans! So come on down and try over 60 beers, as well as see a demonstration of beer brewing by the Ale Riders. There will be polka from 4-8, and a homebrew judging competition. There will be FREE sampling of homebrews, as well as a VIP section where you can sample many beers.
If there are any members that want to help out, please contact Andy Marso and he'll fill you in on the details or send us an email at rushmoregermanclub@gmail.com.
There are a limited amount of tickets, which cost $25 prior to the event, and $30 the day of. Andy can sell you tickets, or you can get them via paypal at the site listed below.

Next meeting: Saturday, September 24
We finally were able to get a place to meet! However, the meeting will have to happen a little earlier than usual. Because thus is both a general membership meeting and a Sommerfest critique, we anticipate this running a little long.
Please come to the Counts Car Club building located at 5531 Mill Road in Black Hawk at 4pm for a social hour featuring food and beverages supplied by the club. The meeting itself will commence at 5:30pm, to last no longer than 7:30. It's located just west of I-90 Exit 52, beside the Round Up Cafe.
We apologize for this late notice, but it's been difficult finding adequate meeting spaces. If you have any suggestions for where a large group of Germans and German enthusiasts can congregate, please feel free to share!
