Donations and proceeds will aid Hurricane Michael victims in Panama City Beach, Mexico Beach, and surrounding areas
AJ's Grayton Beach will hold this year's AJ's Oktoberfest in honor of Hurricane Michael victims on Saturday, October 13, 2018. The event is geared to help relief efforts for the people of Panama City Beach, Mexico Beach, and other areas affected by Hurricane Michael, one of the worst hurricanes to hit the area in decades.
Florida Governor Rick Scott argues that, “Hurricane Michael has changed lives forever,” due to “unimaginable destruction,” and many families having “lost everything.” The total devastation of their neighbors to the east has motivated AJ's Grayton Beach to get involved, and encourage their community to do the same at this weekend's AJ's Oktoberfest.
AJ's Oktoberfest will feature beer tastings (for donation) with a selection of festive German beers, as well as fall games and contests, and live German/polka dance music by Auf Wiedersehen Baby from 5-9pm.
Guests are encouraged to bring non-perishables, paper goods, cases of water, and other hurricane supplies to help BOTE “Stock the Van” with donations for Hurricane Michael victims. Furthermore, 10% of all proceeds from AJ's Oktoberfest will go directly to hurricane relief efforts.
The fun never stops at AJ's Grayton Beach. Kick it into high-gear at the AJ's after party with drink specials and live music from El Dub, the Emerald Coast's favorite one-man reggae funk band.
