Hey, just wanted to remind people of the beer dinner.? I know the economy is crappy right now but that is even more reason to contribute in the donation to the food bank.? We really need at least 15 more people to sign up.? Feel free to invite any who might be interested.

Message-ID: <3bf704470810170934mfe8fa9dpe5c845b88e4ef3ac@mail.gmail.com>

 Hey everyone, I have attached an email that John sent us.... He is
requesting help from anyone who can.  We have a carpool heading down, so let
us know if you can make it and we can figure something out.....

D

"To my poet friends this email goes out to the ones I have emails for and
for the ones that I don't please forward.

Our competition this year is at a 100 entries.

We have a lack of judges with some late minute drop outs due to colds.

There are some poets coming down in a carpool and I'm asking for help if
there is any room left in the vehicle.

We need judges, if your available or know of judges that are please pass on
the word.

Thank you

John
Judge Coordinator
Colorado Springs Brew Brother"

Subject: [Liquidpoets] Mead events in November
Message-ID: <20081022031140.5FB8B3BABFF@mail.robsims.com>

Hi everyone,

I wanted to make sure that all of the Liquid Poets are invited to the two
events I mentioned at the last club meeting.  These are two mead oriented
events that I'm involved in for the Northern Colorado Beekeepers
Association, which is a great group of beekeepers.  I'd really like some of
our brewers to participate so we can have some cross pollination.

So here are the events:

Structured Mead Tasting:  Saturday, 8 November (2-4pm)
-------------------------------------------------------
John Maday (a homebrewer and beekeeper) and I will host a structured mead
tasting at John's house.  This will feature a set of meads that we have
selected to show what mead is about and to contrast some different flavors.
We may have some special guests bringing a couple of additional meads for
that event.  

After the structured tasting portion, we'll have a more general session of
mead tasting.  For this, we're asking people to bring a mead to share if
they'd like.  I've told the beekeepers that I'd prefer that these meads are
either homebrewed or commercial products that they know and like (as opposed
to feeling obligated to bring something).

All in all, this is a great opportunity to meet some beekeepers, learn
something about the wonderful world of mead, and sample some great mead.

Mead Brewing Demonstration: Sunday, 16 November (noon-3pm)
-----------------------------------------------------------
I will be hosting a mead brewing event at my house.  The plan for this event
is for me and, ideally, some others to brew a batch of mead and give people
an idea of what's involved in the process.  I'd really like to get some
others brewing at the same time to show some different alternatives and
approaches, sort of make it like a mini Mead Day.  Sheron is planning to
come to this event and talk about care and feeding, too. 

Finally, Sheron and I are planning to teach a more formal class in mead
making for the beekeepers (and maybe others) that go over the process for
honey bucket (or earlier;-) to glass.  We still need to set a date for this.
This class will have a more limited enrollment, so people will get the most.
We will have the students bring some honey and a small token fee and they
will brew their own personal batch of mead in the course of the class.

So, lots of mead stuff coming up.  I hope some of you will join us.

Jester

Summary:
Mead tasting:
8 November (2-4pm)
7109 Ranger Drive
Fort Collins, CO

Mead brewing demo:
16 November (noon-3pm)
1900 Ridgewood Rd
Ft. Collins CO

I will start taking any nominations that you would like to make.  If you
know of a person (or yourself) that you feel would be a good candidate, let
me know.  Any member of the club is eligible. At the November meeting I will
have a list of all nominated individuals, these individuals can then decide
if they accept the nomination or not?.



Here is a list of the positions in the club, there are some additional tasks
for next year that will be required from the board members, so those are
explained as well.



President

Vice President

Events Coordinator
