The Great Beerhunt Begins Anew

Good day. The final weekend in April approaches and with it, The Great Beerhunt.

For those of you uninitiated into The Beerhunters League:
The Great Beerhunt began last April in honor of my good friend BeerMaster Nate. BeerMasters Steve, Hana, and myself planned and executed an Easter egg Beerhunt for BeerMaster Nate. This entailed painting 75+ beer bottles which ranged in quality from Natural Lite to Sam Adams to Leffe and beyond. Once we had painted the beers, we hid them along a creek in George Washington National Park, at a secluded location known only as Piney River. Many were invited to participate in the inaugural Beerhunt and great fun was had. In order to get to certain of the hidden beers, the Beerhunters plunged into and waded the creek. They executed mind-bending feats of body to secure every last bottle, plopping each outlandishly colored treat into their 'beer baskets' with equally extravagant joy. Once every beer had been located, we tapped a glorious keg and the festival began, lasting well into the night, if not the next morning.

This year, The Great Beerhunt will be held in our collective honor, a week or so past BeerMaster Nate's birthday. Nevertheless, it will be glorious. Prepare yourselves.

What prospective Beerhunters and seasoned BeerMasters must know:
In the ensuing weeks everyone attending must register. I'll give a brief run-down of the process and leave the details for a later post. Every individual who wants to come must join a camp group of 2-8 persons (approximate; we don't care if there is one or two over etc.). Each of these camp groups will be responsible for their own tents, sleeping bags, transportation, several painted beers, beer baskets, water, coolers and probably ice. Additionally, each camp group must have a spokesperson who will report to The Beerhunt Council (members undisclosed). The spokesperson will be responsible for collecting keg and food money from their respective camp group and then forwarding that to The Beer Council at least a week before the fated weekend.

Hence, begin organizing your camp groups, for on April 28-29, The Great Beerhunt lives again!
