Do you enjoy the beautiful hanging flower baskets that grace Corte Madera every spring and summer? Then make sure to stop by the 17th annual Oktoberfest on Oct. 9, 2010.
This popular community event is a fundraiser for the Corte Madera Beautification Committee, and is co-sponsored by the Corte Madera Community Foundation and the Corte Madera Lions Club. It features beer and ale produced by the best northern California micro breweries, and offers traditional foods sold by local vendors. Festive music by a German band, a silent auction, and fun activities for kids make it a great way to spend an afternoon. Admission is $3 for non-drinkers and $17 for attendees who will be consuming beer. Volunteers and children younger than 12 accompanied by a parent get in free.
