It’s time to celebrate Harvest! What better way than the great old German tradition of Oktoberfest! Join the Tualatin Lions Club and their friends for their annual Oktoberfest celebration Saturday, October 6th 2018 at the Tualatin Valley Elks Lodge, 8350 SW Warm Springs, Tualatin. Doors open at 5:00PM and the price is an always-reasonable $12 per person or $30 for a family of four! Tickets are available at the door or by emailing the Tualatin Lions at tualatinlions@gmail.com.

The Tualatin Lions will serve local German style sausage, or “wurst” from Zenners Sausage Company of NW Portland, locally produced sauerkraut, Hamburg style deep fried potatoes (kartoffeln) with lots of salt and vinegar, dinner rolls and famous German apfle kuchen (apple harvest cake). Coffee will be supplied by Tualatin Dutch Brothers and the Elks bar has beer (even German seasonal), wine, sodas and cocktails. Oktoberfest is sponsored by Gramor Development, a great partner of the Tualatin Lions in community service!

Victor Meindl of the West Linn Riverview Lions will be there again with his famous accordion and giant repertoire of German songs. As always there will be great raffles of products from local Tualatin/Sherwood area merchants and businesses and our famous 50/50 raffles. The crew of dirndl-clad hostesses will again be on hand to sell as many tickets as people want!

The proceeds of Lions Oktoberfest go towards supporting Lions charitable work in the community, region and world. From school vision screening throughout the region to exams, glasses and hearing aids for underserved neighbors, to the Tigard/Tualatin Schools Caring Closet, the Schoolhouse Pantry, the Oregon Food Bank and the work of the Oregon Lions Sight & Hearing Foundation, every penny that comes in to the Tualatin Lions goes right back to the community! Also, all beverage proceeds from the Tualatin Valley Elks goes toward the Casey Eye Clinic at OHSU.

Kommen sie! Essen sie! Trinken sie! Machen sie gemutlichkeit! Come! Eat! Drink! Have a good time! Help the Tualatin Lions improve the lives of people through their community service works! The Tualatin Lions meet at 6:30PM every 2nd and 4th Thursday at Island Greens Golf, 20400 SW Cipole Rd. Tualatin, OR 97062.
