3rd Annual OktoberFest - 2008

Photo Album

Lancaster's 3rd annual OktoberFest was bigger and better than ever! Once again, we started with a Preview Party on Friday night, October 10th, with live entertainment, a full German meal, and a selection of German beer, custom-made wine, and root beer on tap. Then on Saturday, October 11, we had a full day of activities, including food and beverages available a la carte, live music, performances by a Bavarian dance club, and amusement rides for all ages. Both days, a select group of artists were on-hand to show and sell their art.

Saturday Open Celebration
Alpine Dancers perform traditional Bavarian dance.		The Youngest Generation of Alpine Dancers were real crowd-pleasers!

The Alpine Dancers left the dance floor and invited the crowd to join in on the chicken dance.		The Pet Parade featured animals brought by their owners as well as dogs and cats brought by animal rescue groups.
