2009 Club Picnic

Heart of the Valley Homebrewers host a picnic every year. This year it was held at Lion's Shelter in Avery Park in Corvallis. It was a beautiful day, and started with a golf outing coordinated by Mike Gallagher. The picnic featured loads of food brought by club members, as well as Mr. Bill, Bill, and Doug working the grills. Games were coordinated by Louis and Karen Hans and included a hop race, keg rolls, and an egg toss. Feats of strength were also part of the picnic, as kegs were tossed and awards given out for the longest toss. Thanks to Dave Benson for coordinating this years' picnic!
