Oktoberfest at Landings Harbor Set for October 24

It’s time to dig out your lederhosen and dust off your beer steins! The Skidaway Island Boating Club (SIBC), along with Carefree Boat Club and the Coastal Conservation Association (CCA) Skidaway Chapter, will host an Oktoberfest October 24 at Landings Harbor Marina from 5 to 7 p.m.

Members of CCA and both boat clubs are invited to enjoy four kinds of brats, ’kraut, slaw, and southern potato salad during the Oktoberfest at the Marina’s picnic grounds. The per person fee for members is $10 payable online at www.skidawayislandboatingclub.org.

Also, there will be a fabulous raffle with 100 percent of the proceeds benefitting the Savannah Homeless Authority’s Tiny House Project for homeless veterans. Raffle prizes include a 90-day Carefree membership, a rod-and-reel set from CCA, and a one-year SIBC membership.

The last Oktoberfest event was a lip-smacking success! Be sure to RSVP by the October 19 deadline and bring a folding chair and a few greenbacks for the raffle. The rain date is October 28. For questions or more information, email siboatingclub@gmail.com.
