Register training will be held Thursday, August 3rd at 5:30 pm in the Biergarten Pavilion, beverages provided.
Main locations:
The Oktoberfest Tent is the huge 100 x 200 tent with the giant PROST letters on the outside and headline acts performing on the main stage.
The Biergarten is in the center of it all with the bar located in the Pavilion. It's a casual hangout for festgoers, with traditional German tunes played on the Biergarten (Park) stage, and a busy, busy bar.
The Backyard is relocating this year across the road under a 60 x 80 tent. This is where cans of local craft brews can be found, along with some favorite local "beyond-oompah" bands. The Bark Park is where the little-legged Dachshunds and Corgis race. For those of you who know the Walworth County Fairgrounds, it's Machinery Lot.

Mom always said, "many hands make light work". We need a village to help set up Wednesday 8/2 and Thursday 8/3. Also, please join us at 6:30 pm on Sunday 8/6 to break down tables and chairs, pack up the decorations, etc. Thank you!
Team Competition: we're giving away an extra $1500 to charity!
Sign up as a team of 4 or more! Wear your company shirt, or German attire - or both! We'll pick a best-dressed/most-enthusiastic winning team each day of the festival.
