Win a $50 Package to the Oregon Brewers Festival

How about a $50 package for two to the Oregon Brewers Festival? We have not just one, but two $50 obf packages to give away — which includes two mugs, 40 tokens and a program! What a deal!

Now, all you have to do to be a part of this drawing is to tap into your creative juices and write up a haiku poem about the Oregon Brewers Festival!

Remember, haikus don’t have to rhyme! That’s the good news. But they must adhere to a very specfic parameter:
There are only three lines in a haiku: the first has five syllables, the second has seven syllables and the third again has five syllables.

Now, to qualify for the $50 OBF package for two, the subject of your haiku must be _about _the OBF! Please only enter two haikus per person. If you submit more, I am going to choose my favorites which might not be yours!

You have until July 16 to get your obf haikus to me. A panel of judges including yours truly and Chris cCabb of the obf will select the semi-finalists and then you, dear listeners will get to log on to beergoddess.com starting on July 17 to vote for your favorites! The top two vote-getters will win the OBF packages that includes two mugs, 40 tokens and an official oregon brewers festival program — a $50 value!

Send your haikus to me at real.beergoddess@gmail.com by July 16 at 7 a.m.

And just to help you get started, I made up a couple of OBF haikus — I am pretty sure you can do better than these!

A hot summer day
the nectar quenches my thirst
oregon brew fest

Hark! The first yodel!
The obf siren song
let the games begin!
