New Homebrew Club in Naperville/Plainfield, IL

Thu Sep 09, 2010 1:17 pm

This is really short notice but:

A few of us local homebrewers are putting together a new club. First meeting is tonight, September 9th, 7:00 pm at Limestone Brewing on Rt. 59. Hope you can make it! We have several new people that will be checking out the club for the first time. Here's what we plan (hope!) to cover:

# Welcome and introductions
# Club Name - nominations will be accepted during the meeting - if you have a sales pitch, we want to hear it
# Submissions will be accepted until October 8th
# During the October meeting we will narrow names down with a voting process and then have a final vote on the best two
# Discussion on what officers we need
# October - nominations for officers
# November - vote on officers
# Discussion on a club only, one style contest / tasting
# DRINK BEER! If you have it - bring some bottles or a growler of your homebrew

We plan to meet the 2nd Thursday of each month. Limestone has been more than outgoing to help us and to them, many thanks!

Hope to see some of you locals there. If not, pencil in October's meeting. We're a pretty laid back group! You can email us at plainfieldbrewclub@gmail.com

Interested in meeting up as I live less than 5 minutes from Limestone.

Any website or newsletter type thing going yet?

Nothing yet. If you send an email to plainfieldbrewclub@gmail.com you'll get email updates. So far there have just been 3-4 updating new people on meeting items, etc. I'm sure we'll get to a website and newsletter eventually. Right now, we're still considering a club name! :lol:

Christopher & blipiddybrew, look forward to seeing you there.

Just to update, the club now has a name: Plainfield Ale & Lager Enthusiasts (P.A.L.E.). Our next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 11th. If you haven't made a meeting yet, pencil in the 11th. Also, Limestone Brewing gives P.A.L.E. members 20% off their food orders during the meeting!
