The ever-popular Tualatin Lions Oktoberfest will take place on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at the Tualatin Valley Elks Lodge, 8350 SW Warm Springs St., Tualatin, with the doors opening at 5:00 p.m.
Dinners will be just $12 each again. Dinner will be locally sourced and will include Zenner’s German Sausage, Willamette Valley sauerkraut, Hamburg-style fries and a delicious German dessert. Beer, wine, cocktails and soft drinks will be available from the Elks Lodge bar. Dinners, prepared by the Tualatin Lions, will be served by members of the Scouts from Troop 530. Dinners are available for dine-in or take-out.
The Tualatin Lions will also offer local merchant raffle items and tickets for only $1. The Lions will also have a crowd favorite, a “50/50” raffle for just $5 a ticket. There will be German Oktoberfest music, and the Lodge will be brightly decorated for Oktoberfest, which is scheduled just after German Unity Day, “Tag Der Deutsche Einheit” (Thursday, 10/3/2023), so there’s ample travel time for any German celebrating Oktoberfest in Munich to get to Tualatin.
The Tualatin Lions will be busy in the kitchen, making sure the sausage and kraut are ready for everyone. Come celebrate autumn and the harvest the “old world way” with the Tualatin Lions Club
