Complimentary food and drinks will be provided with special pours of craft beer by Big Grove Brewery available in the vaudeville-era dressing rooms.

Item #4: 24-hour Beer + Food Excursion to Minneapolis – On an early Friday morning in Summer 2017, a private bus will pick up a group of 10-12 participants at The Englert Theatre and drive them to Minneapolis to take an indulgent tour of legendary Midwestern brewery Surly Brewing Co. The tour will include tastings of amazing beers that are not distributed to Iowa. The tour will be followed by a multi-course dinner at the wonderful downtown restaurant the Butcher & The Boar. Lodging will be provided in a downtown hotel. The group will travel back to Iowa City the following morning. The trip will be led by Mission Creek staff/chaperones. This will be a fantastic bonding experience. Starting bid (group bids accepted and encouraged!): $12,000
