\nPresident’s Blowoff<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nHi Brewers!<\/p>\n
Wow….what an amazing weekend we have had for BUBR! Not only did we set record attendance but the feedback from our runners was immensely positive in how the race was organized. So, thank you to all of our volunteers! We could not have done this without everyone\u2019s help and dedication. I would especially like to thank Anne Gregg our race director and the other officers for their tireless work to get everything together for the run. Thanks to Christie Berrier for our amazing logo this year! The shirts looked amazing!<\/p>\n
So, let\u2019s enjoy June as a club! We have our Summer Party on June 16 at pelican Beach park in Indian harbor beach. We will be serving some amazing brisket which we were able to get for everyone. And I can\u2019t wait to see what sides you guys dream up! Bring the family it will be an amazing day!<\/p>\n
We also have the Brew Bus at the end of the month June 30. It will be an amazing time. Several tours and great beer and food! If you haven\u2019t signed up yet there are still a few seats left!<\/p>\n
I look forward to seeing everyone next weekend! Again, immense gratitude to all you club members that helped make BUBR a huge success!!!<\/p>\n
Cheers!<\/p>\n

\nCommander SAAZ Sponsorships Available<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/a>Do you have friends\/contacts with businesses?\u00a0 Our Commander SAAZ event offers sponsorship levels suitable for any budget.\u00a0 Each competition entrant (and we expect many hundreds since this competition does not have an entry limit) will receive a printout, similar to the sponsors page on SAAZ\u2019s website.\u00a0 The listing follows the order of the sponsorship levels (Platinum sponsors listed first, then Gold, and so on).\u00a0 By donating to our competition, companies will be getting their product to the appropriate and appreciative beer-centric audience.\u00a0 Email Cmdr.SAAZ@saaz.org<\/a> if you can help with sponsors, either by recruiting the sponsor yourself or by providing a lead for a potential sponsor.\u00a0 We have an introductory letter that provides information about SAAZ, its educational and community service work, and explains the sponsorship levels.<\/p>\n
