Quench Your Thirst: Safety First, Fundraiser at Central Waters Brewing Company – Portage/Waupaca County Chapter

Raise a glass and funds to support the Portage/Waupaca County Chapter of the Ice Age Trail Alliance. Win prizes and enjoy complimentary snacks, too!

Join the fun on Wednesday, February 7, from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., where the Central Waters Brewing Company will donate $2.00 to the Chapter for every beer purchased. (Non-alcoholic drinks available, too!) These funds will outfit volunteers for the 2024 Trail maintenance season with much needed, high-visibility vests and Stihl string trimmers.

Come meet like-minded Ice Age Trail enthusiasts: dedicated volunteers and devoted hikers.

  • Talk Trail – learn about volunteering, find a new hiking buddy, and meet Monty the Mammoth.
  • Buy Alliance merch. If Santa didn’t bring the Thousand-Miler Map, this is your chance to get one anyway (and skip shipping costs!).
  • Stick around for the Raffle Drawing at 6:30 p.m.; there will be plenty of nifty things to win.
