Food, beer and wine gardens, kids' zone, music and friends all in one place...on Main Street! With all that is going on right now it brings us great joy to announce that the Oktoberfest on Main Street Placerville will be happening!

Go to http://kiltandcork.com/oktoberfest/  for all the event details, sign up for the contests and to order your limited edition beer stein. These will sell out!

This is a family friendly FREE event!  A portion of the proceeds from the Oktoberfest event will be donated to Housing El Dorado, a non-profit organization working to find and create affordable housing opportunities for our community.

The wiener dog races return and you will want to be there. You can register your dog in advance and pay $20 or register on race day for $25. We do need your forms completed prior to allowing your dog to race, so do it today and get it out of the way. The proceeds from this year's wiener dog race will be donated to the Wildlife Disaster Network and the Gold Country Wildlife Rescue Team for the work they are doing to heal and restore the wildlife displaced by the Caldor Fire.
