IMMEDIATE RELEASE
You are Invited to Join Mayor
Bates for Three Special Events…
Celebrate
the 25th Anniversary of Brew Pubs on Thursday, September 13th
at 5pm Please join Mayor Bates and many
Bay Area brewpub owners to celebrate the 25th anniversary of
the California law legalizing brewpubs.
The law – which Bates authored while in the Assembly – was
replicated around the country, creating the national brewpub industry and
introducing millions of people to good beer.
The event will include a ceremonial “bill signing” by the
owners of Bay Area Brewpubs and a special beer brewed just for the
occasion by Triple Rock Brewery. (Triple
Rock was the 3rd brewpub opened after the law was signed.)
No long speeches, just a few toasts and a great celebration. Thursday,
Sept. 13th from 5pm – 6:30pm ** Note: It is unfortunate that this anniversary falls on Rosh Hashanah. Our apologies to those of you who can’t make it. ‘Lunch
with Tom’ on Tuesday, Sept. 18th at Noon Please join Mayor Bates for a
lunch and a discussion about local issues.
As always, Tom will give an update on recent events and then open
it up for questions and discussion. We
will be trying out Eclipse Café, a new restaurant in Downtown Berkeley. Lunch is a $10 flat rate for sandwiches, salad, and drinks.
Tuesday, September 18th at Noon Please RSVP to mayor@ci.berkeley.ca.us or call (510) 981-7100. Investing
in Climate Protection: Berkeley
Business Responds to Climate Change Sept.
14th at Noon Last November, Berkeley residents
voted to take decisive action on global warming by approving Measure G,
which targets a community wide 80% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
by 2050. Business leaders have a key role to play to help make this
target a reality. Join us to
share ideas about how businesses can reduce greenhouse gas emissions while
saving money and join our climate protection movement.
Friday, September 14th Lunch
starts at Noon and is $20 For more information and to RSVP,
