Fire district offers
bicycle helmets
The Sisters-Camp
Sherman Fire District
received a $200 grant from the
Sisters Kiwanis Community
Service Foundation to pro-
vide bicycle helmets to
Sisters-area children who are
in need of one. With the grant
funding, the fire district was
able to purchase 28 bicycle
helmets sized toddler through
extra-large.
Safe Kids Oregon reports
that every two minutes, a
child is treated in an emer-
gency room for an uninten-
tional cycle-related incident.
Helmet use is the most effec-
tive way to reduce bicycle-
related fatalities. In Oregon
all children under the age of
16 must wear a helmet. Using
a helmet can reduce the risk
of serious head injury in chil-
dren by 78 percent.
Fire Chief Roger Johnson
said, “This is a great partner-
ship with Kiwanis, whose
mission is serving the chil-
dren of the world, and the fire
district where we are focused
on preventing injuries in our
community.”
For more information, or
to have your child fitted for
a free helmet, contact the
Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire
District at 541-549-0771 or
stop by 301 S. Elm St. in
Sisters. Helmets will be pro-
vided at no charge while sup-
plies last.
Boutique beer brewing
has come home — literally.
Many people are crafting
their own, and Sisters will
celebrate the results in the
Sisters Homebrew Festival at
Creekside Park on Saturday,
June 3, from 1 to 6 p.m.
The Sisters Homebrew
Festival is like many brew
fests, with one distinct
twist: It’s all homebrew.
Organized as a fundraiser
for the Sisters Park &
Recreation District and the
Kiwanis Club of Sisters,
the event is sponsored by
local businesses. The event
will feature live music by
bands including Dry Canyon
Stampede, and smoked
meats served by Sisters
Meat and Smokehouse.
And, of course, there will be
homebrew.
The event tent will house
more than 30 taps of the best
homebrew in the region.
Amateur brewmasters from
far and wide will be proudly
providing kegs of their great-
est creations for attendees to
sample.
Entry to the Sisters
Homebrew Festival will be
$25 at the door, or $20 if
purchased in advance from
either the Sisters Park &
Recreation District office or
the Kiwanis Club of Sisters.
Once inside you are welcome
to as many free samples of
homebrew as you like and as
much great smoked bratwurst
as you can eat, for as long as
supplies last. (Alcohol must
be consumed responsibly,
patrons will but cut off at the
servers’ discretion.)
There is a strict limit on
the number of attendees for
this event; purchase tick-
ets in advance to guarantee
admittance.
“I think this is going to
be a great community event
for Sisters,” said SPRD
Executive Director Liam
Hughes. “We live in an area
with a ton of homebrews and
no event like this currently
exists. Most homebrew fes-
tival include the brewer just
submitting a small sample
of beer to a panel of judges.
This event is all about home-
brewers being able to share
their craft with the masses,
exchange ideas and just
generally enjoy this great
hobby.”
