American Legion Post 83 in Mathews is branching out with its fundraising and community outreach this year by taking over Oktoberfest from Francis de Sales Catholic Church. Seasonal food and fun will be offered from 4-7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 24, at the post home on Hookemfair Road at Hudgins. The menu will include bratwurst, pork loin, German potato salad, and sauerkraut. Having long held a monthly “World Famous Breakfast,” the post hopes to make Oktoberfest an annual event.“Those of you who have experienced the World Famous Breakfast know how great our kitchen crew prepares a feast,” says the ticket sales site. Proceeds from the event will help the post make improvements to its facilities, support its Christmas Meals on Wheels project, and support local veterans. Only 100 tickets will be sold in order to “keep the atmosphere as warm as the German menu,” said community relations chair Ron Lambert. Tickets are $40, including beer and wine.
