First Coast Cup Bottle Sorting

We are looking for about 20 volunteers to help sort and label bottles for the First Coast Cup Competition. We will be meeting at King Maker Brewery on Friday, July 5th at 10am and ending around 2pm. 

In order to get an accurate head count going into the sorting, please RSVP on the CASK Group Facebook Event. It would help if volunteers brought a folding table and we also need empty beer cases (not 6 pack holders). Thank you!
