March Events
Here are a listing of all events at the brewery for the month of March:
* Our March 7th First Friday brings crafty vendors, a Thai noodle food truck and karaoke is back! Johnny Thai starts serving at 5pm, vendors are set up by 6pm & karaoke starts 8pm. Also, beer! Beer beer beer!
* TNT Trivia returns Tuesdays (4th, 11th, 18th and 25th) & is hosted by Traci. It's a mix of traditional trivia with twists and turns for extra credit. This is a free event with prizes for first and second place.
* our line dancing crew is dedicated and having a great time two Sundays a month. This Sunday March 9th they're having a boot exchange! This month we've got March 9th and March 23rd as our line dancing dates. It's pay at the door and only $15 gets you an adult beverage and dancing from 2:30-5pm.
* We green-ify our gardening thumbs on Monday March 10th when Lee County Cooperative Extension does a container gardening class as part of their Bier Garten Garden Club series.
* Weds March 12th brings the return of our book club - 6:30pm start - this month we're reading A Song to Drown Rivers by Ann Liang. Grab a copy locally at Sips & Sequels, Monkeykat or Fulfillity Books in Hope Mills. Our local library always appreciates the foot traffic and those books are free if you return them in time!
* also on Weds Mar 12th - our monthly beer share beginning at 7pm. Bring a couple bottles (or cans, or growlers) of your favorite brews to share. This is a group of serious beer lovers who source beers from all over this country and beyond, come ready to learn some things you didn't previously know about beer and breweries & sample some good beers. No fee to this event.
* Saturday March 15th we also have a food truck rodeo with The Flat Drum, Thai Smile Street Food, Ty's Uptown Grill & Viet's Wok are participating. These last two trucks are new-to-us trucks that are now on the schedule for a few dates this year, Ty's had a great initial night with us and we finally landed a Vietnamese food truck in Viet's Wok! These are always great events and a good way to find a new dish or revisit an old favorite.
* we've got an old fashioned double feature for you on Saturday March 22nd - in part one we're hosting an event to introduce families to a wellness program called Girls on the Run which is focused on keeping young women physically and mentally fit at a time when evidence indicates declines in these areas. The event starts at 2:30pm and includes yoga by Sanford Yoga & Community Center and a short fun run. Get tickets here (they're cheap!)
* now for part deux. Starting at 6pm on Saturday March 22nd we host the first of three Spring Garage Concerts. These are free events around the back of the brewery - in March the three bands include Solar Illusion, Small Doses & Sanford's own Car Crash Pool Party. The bands are often loud, proud and always ready to rock.
* we close out the month with a time honored fave - free-to-you retro arcade games at the beer hall on Friday, March 28th AND Saturday, March 29th. Lots of old time classics like Buck Hunter and Area 51 mixed with Guitar Hero, Duck Hunt and more. I may be speaking a little out of turn here, Level by Level Gaming will install a slightly different mix of games every time to keep it fresh. Come find out what's new & have a beer while enjoying some retro flavor.
* But wait, there's more! Flora & Fauna Activities are back with their Gyotaku class on Monday, March 31st. This has proved far more popular then I would have imagined when they first started being offered. Gyotaku is the Japanese art of fish printing and there is no dissembling here, that's exactly what you're learning about and doing. Looks deeply relaxing and culturally interesting! There's an adult beverage hidden in that ticket price, too.
It's also worth taking a sneak peek ahead to April when we have a night of Celtic music with Pipes, Accordions, Fiddlers and More on April 5th, our 4th annual Brews, Blues & BBQ festival (tickets required) on April 12th, a sushi rolling workshop (with loads of sushi and a crafty beverage included) on April 15th, another Garage Concert on April 18th & a new pint and paint series with Jessica Rigsbee who is not just a good artist but also a delightful human being.
That's all folks, hope you'll join us for some, or all, of these events! Check our Facebook events page for details on all these and more.
