Re: Accrington Stanley Beer Festival

I wasn't expecting 15 ordinary punters to stump up £70 for a Barrel, if that's the way it came across it wasn't meant too. People on here work for companies & people on here own companies hence why I posted it on here as well as it going on the Fishy Site. Also take into account I was trying to get this off the ground without any funding to start with!!

I have contacted over forty Business's in and around Hynburn, Two bit's in the Observer appealing for potential Sponsors as well as contacts I know. Perhaps I could have done more but I have only have so much spare time.

What I have got now is a good amount of knowledge of how these Event's work, An amazing amount of friendly, helpful & useful contacts within the Local Brewery Trade that I now know I can call upon to help when needed

I still think there is mileage in the Idea & Concept of a Beer Festival and if we are not in a position to do it when originally intended there is Next Year, maybe during the Summer when there is not too much going on around the Club as a way of bringing in some funds when needed?

Watch this Space!

Thanks to everyone who has showed an interest
