HOLIDAY FUN... LET’S MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN CHILDREN’S LIVES...

Please join us again at Brooks Kitchen & Tap on Wednesday, December 3rd, anytime between 5:30pm-8:30pm for a fun-filled evening to benefit a wonderful non-profit organization, 4 K.I.D.S SAKE! We will be collecting toys, and nonperishable items (food in jars, cans and sealed packets) to help stock their food pantry.

We'll have gift baskets to raffle with different themes to appeal to everyone. And we'll also be raffling off some fun and exciting prizes including a 70" 4K Smart Roku TV... There will also be a photo backdrop for everyone to take holiday pictures and we'll have a card making station so we can send special holiday wishes to the kids that receive the toys.

Drawings for all raffles will take place between 7:00pm-7:30pm; if you're a winner and can't be present, we'll go ahead and arrange for you to pick-up your prize with the charity. Tax donation receipts will also be provided if needed. (Cash & Credit cards will be accepted for raffles tickets and donations - Credit card donations will be matched).

Please note: Any credit card/digital donations from Dec 2nd - Dec 16th including at the Dec 3rd charity event will be Matched by CoVantages Cares Foundation. Please use this website link below after Dec 1st for any online credit card donations if you can't make the event.

Toys should be new or gently used, complete and in good condition. We were told that toddler toys and toys for kids 10-14 years old were in demand. Some ideas include: craft kits, board games, small electronics such as headphones and game accessories (X-Box, PlayStation, etc.). However, cloth toys of any kind cannot be accepted.
Pantry (non-perishable) items are also very much needed which include canned fruit, canned soup, and breakfast items such as cereal and oatmeal just to name a few (can’t be expired).

Happy hour specials will be available from 5:30pm-7:30pm but we may try to extend it a little bit longer. Specials include $4 White Claws, Miller Lite Draft Pints & Table Merlot/Sauvignon Blanc wines, $7 House Margaritas & Sangria Royale, and $9 Brook's Old-Fashioned & Tito's Dirty Martinis. We’ll also have specials on Corona, & other bottled beers. And don’t forget about the $4, $7, and $9 appetizer specials! Full menu items will be available, and the dining room will also be open for dinner.

Come join us for Strangelove - DEPECHE MODE Experience & Electric Duke!

This event is $32 for General Admission. Get TICKETS here.

7:00 p.m. - Doors Open
8:00 p.m. - Electric Duke (David Bowie Tribute), followed by
Strangelove (Depeche Mode)

Strangelove-The DEPECHE MODE Experience delivers a career-spanning, pitch-perfect “best of” concert that transports listeners through time and touches on several key points in Depeche Mode’s 40+ year career. Songs from throughout the Depeche canon of 50+ chart-topping hits are lovingly recreated, with the look, feel, and ENERGY of a classic-era DEPECHE MODE arena show. No detail of Strangelove’s presentation has been overlooked, and stage set pieces and in-show costume changes reflect different eras of Depeche Mode’s story.

"They do it to such fine detail it's scary" (Martin Gore, Depeche Mode).

I will be there at 7:00 pm when the doors open. The earlier you get there, the better chance to join the group in the General Admission area.
