9 reasons why the VIP Experience is so worth it

The 2018 VIP experience is out of this world. This year’s VIP experience is proudly sponsored by 42 Mill Street, luxury condominiums in uptown Georgetown. Additional awesome VIP perks are sponsored by Sirius XM and MaxxCharge.

The VIP experience first started in 2017. We were looking for ways to increase our fundraising efforts for Food4Kids and other local charities, while providing a few extra perks for those who want to partake. The idea was a hit, and this year we’re making the VIP experience WAY more awesome.

For a $50 ticket upgrade, enjoy these 9 VIP perks:

  1. Access to the private VIP area with exclusive seating and coverage. In other words, an designated seat and tent, rain or shine!
  2. Exclusive beer and food samples from a selection of attending breweries, only accessible in the VIP area
  3. Private VIP luxury washrooms. This ain’t your grandma’s porta-potty…we’re talking about a luxury washroom trailer with bells & whistles
  4. Four extra beer tokens on entry, making a total of EIGHT tokens that come with your ticket
  5. Priority parking right at the front of the Trafalgar Sports Parker, meaning a shorter walk till you can get the party started
  6. Express entry through the VIP entrance, no waiting in line to get to the goods!
  7. Three months of FREE access to SIRIUS XM audio entertainment services
  8. Phone charging stations in the VIP tent, provided by MaxxCharge.ca, to keep you charged and ready to document the heck out of Sept 15
  9. A full sized pint glass as a thank you gift. Everyone loves the sampler beer mugs that come free with your ticket, but this glass is one you can use for a full pint at home while you reminisce about the amazing time you had at the Georgetown Craft Beer Festival

Does the extra $50 sound worth it yet?

VIP = Very Important Pint. Every VIP ticket sold means MORE funds go directly to local charities.

We couldn’t make all this happen without our sponsors. Thank you to our VIP Experience sponsor, 42 Mill Street, to Sirius XM for donating 3 months of free service to all VIPs, and to MaxxCharge for providing the phone charging stations to keep things going in the VIP tent!

Feeding hope, fighting hunger

 

The Georgetown Craft Beer Festival is proud to name Food4Kids as the featured charity for the third year in a row. In 2015, the festival donated $5,000. In 2016 that donation tripled to $15,000. In 2017, the sky is the limit!

The Georgetown Craft Beer Festival is entirely volunteer-run and 100% of proceeds are donated to local charities. Each year, Georgetown’s service clubs pick a communal feature charity (Food4Kids) and the remainder of proceeds are donated to other causes supported by the service clubs in Halton Hills. Learn more about the amazing organization, Food4Kids, here:

www.food4kidshalton.ca

A 10 year old boy waited outside the locked doors of a school breakfast program. The program was to start at 8:15 and the child stood outside at 7:15 in the dark, in the cold and alone. He explained he had not had any food on the weekend and was hungry. Could he please have some food? This child inspired the launch of the Food4Kids program in 2012.

Now 5 years later, Food4Kids provides packages of healthy food for kids aged 4-14 years with limited or no access to food each weekend during the school year to 70 children in Halton Hills.  Each week volunteers shop, pack and deliver the food to our local schools.  We are funded through community grants, individual & corporate donations and fundraising initiatives. Food4Kids is a program that is very much in need in all of Halton and Hamilton, and is now in Kitchener-Waterloo and will soon start in Brantford and Niagara.  Many families in our community are struggling to make ends meet and often are left to make the hard decision of whether to pay the bills or buy food for their children.  Food4Kids offers hope and allows children to start their week at school alert and ready to learn and play with their friends.  During July and August Food4Kids offers a summer program, the only one of its kind in Canada.  This summer 24 families in Halton Hills will have food delivered directly to their homes including a recipe and all the ingredients needed for the family to cook a meal together.

For more information about the Food4Kids program or getting involved contact the Halton Hills rep Eva Podoski eva@food4kids.ca.

THANK YOU, GEORGETOWN CRAFT BEER FESTIVAL, FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!
