CHAPTER 1610 BRAT FEST 2024 was a huge success. Despite a steady rain Friday morning, it did not deter hungry Minnesotans from satisfying their craving for a fresh-grilled brat or hot dog. As you can see in the photo below, rain gear was an essential fashion accessory.
A big part of our success was the great location we were afforded compliments of ACE HARDWARE of CROSSLAKE. THANK YOU, DAN!!
A common question from patrons was, "These brats are GREAT!! Where did you get them?" Luckily for them the trip to purchase them was right across the street at REED's MARKET. So, Chapter 1610 extends a heart-felt and sincere THANK YOU to Marty Reed and his staff for their generosity.
Finally...a third ingredient to the success of this event was the volunteers. Thanks and kudos are warmly extended to Mike Petersen, Craig Rodamaker, Corinne Roberts, Judy Piepgras, Carol Nelson, Mark Crist, Dave Koenig, Brandon Eberts, and Jane Haubrich.
