The Ale Booklet, including directions, schedules, and other ale information, is also available, as well as a suggested packing list.

Food

Meals will be provided for ale attendees, including breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday, and a feast on Saturday evening at the campsite. (Because most teams go to Doyle's Pub after the Lilac Sunday tour, we will not be providing a separate dinner on Sunday.)

Picnic lunches will be provided for Saturday and Sunday day attendees, with an option to also join us for the feast.

Meals

Meals will be provided for ale attendees, from breakfast on Saturday through lunch Sunday.
