Put a spring in your step towards the beer!


โ€‹

Hey, Reader!

Welcome to Spring! We're in the Colorado mountains, where spring means snow meets birds meets sunshine meets wind, all within one hour!

Whatever weather you're dealing with this spring, we hope you are safe. Not only safe but thriving.

Which, with the climate (both weather and politics) today, thriving might be pushing it.

On that note, why not stop adulting for a bit this spring and come play with us instead in Salida, Colorado, at Camp Carpe Diem?

We've got craft beer from Tres Litros Beer Company. Live music from The Status Crowes. Food from Bรกnh Vivant. Coffee from Mountain Phoenix Coffee Roastery. The Chill Zone from Hammock Universe. And so much more!

Not sure if CCD is for you? Tune into TVC Live this Thursday, April 3, at 7:00 pm Central Time with our friends, partners, and co-counselors, Debra and Barry Benton.

We'll be chatting about CCD, Salida, Buena Vista, Colorado, and all the reasons why attending an adult camp is the cure for all the crap that's going on in the world - at least for a weekend.


Ready to stop adulting?

Use code STOUTFRENZ20 for $20 off!


Beer might be the cure, too! Keep on scrolling to learn more about one of our favorite beer festivals. And no, it's not GABF.

"TREE" NEWS

The last time we sent you an email, we mentioned finding roots - roots dealing with craft beer, of course. We also mentioned that our happy place is with friends, beverages in hand, feeling like we are hanging out in our backyard no matter where we are.

So, we've been busy getting the Backyard ready! Step one: build tables and benches. Step two...more to come!

Join us at Camp Carpe Diem and at our table!
