Taste of Deutschland

Break out your lederhosen and ready your palate for bratwurst. It’s time for Oktoberfest. On October 6, noon–7 p.m., roam around Cloverdale Plaza in Cloverdale and sip beer and wine, eat German food, and listen to live music. Perhaps you’ll even find a treasure or two at the silent auction or have the caricaturist render a funny drawing of the family. For the kids, there will be magic shows (2 & 4 p.m.), face-painting and balloon twisting, and even a chance to pick out a Halloween pumpkin from one of the many Courtney’s Pumpkin Patch will be selling. Admission to the event is free. Meals of bratwurst, sauerkraut, and potato salad will be served from noon–5 p.m. for $12 in advance or $15 at the door. (Kids ages 10 and under can get hot dogs and chips for $5; all meals include beverage.) Purchase tickets at Mail Center Etc. in Cloverdale or from any Cloverdale Kiwanis member.
