Back by popular demand on Saturday, September 16 is Growlfest at the Virginia Zoo. Our club is partnering with the zoo and the Sunrise Rotary Club on this craft beer party and evening of family fun. Last September's inaugural Growlfest sold out with 1,500 guests of all ages enjoying a magical evening at the zoo. The first Growlfest generated more than $7,000 for our club with additional proceeds benefitting the zoo and Sunrise club.
Growlfest tickets are $25 and include evening zoo admission, two local craft beers, a souvenir glass growler and music. Food trucks will be on hand, and zoo animals will be displayed until 7:30 p.m. Eight Hampton Roads breweries will serve their special beer, and many will offer discounts for growler fills in the month after the event. Tickets for $10 are available for non-drinkers and guests ages 2 through 20. Children under 2 are free. Details and tickets are available here: http://virginiazoo.org/events/growlfest-2017/
