April 9, 2015

Well that was weird. We basically got the same amount of snow yesterday than what we did over the course of the whole winter. Go figure. But not worry as its supposed to be sunny and warm on Thursday. Luck of the Irish!!

Something to be even more excited about is that the design of the 10th season limited edition shirts is in! Reply on our Facebook post your color preference for the printing to help us decide which one! On the back are the names of everyone who have 6 or more runs. That’s 3,400 of you and counting!! You can still get your name added but you have to have your 6-runs in before May 21st as the shirts will be ready for the group photo scheduled for June 4. That leaves you with 7 runs including this week’s run. Don’t miss out to be included in history!

The month of April starts our monthly brewery rotation. And to kick it all off is Waddell’s Brewery. Their beers will be featured on some of the taps and of course that means lots of free swag. But we know you like a little more incentive!! As we did last year, for each week you show up during the month you get an entry into the grand prize sponsored by Waddell’s to be given away on April 23rd:

VIP Tour
$50 Gift Card
1/6 Barrel
Custom Made Sign Out of a Wooden Pallet

But there is a caveat (always is)… you have to be at least 21 and to win and you have to be wearing a Flying Irish milestone shirt (6, 33, 50, 100, 200) at the weekly run to put your name in the raffle.

See you Thursday!
