Competition Calendar
by Mark Tumarkin
While there are many contests on a larger national scale; here are some upcoming contests in the next few months that are more regional and closer to home. This is important if you are considering going to judge or steward at the contest, and also saves on shipping for entries. Currently, there aren't many Hogtown Brewers that have been entering competitions. I'd like to see more entries from our club and local and regional contests are a good place to start. So save a few bottles from your better batches to send off to the following contests.
