13th Annual Highlands Oktoberfest

The feel-good spirit of Highlands’ Oktoberfest is modeled on the traditional Munich, Germany Oktoberfest with an emphasis on eating, drinking and being merry while providing something for everyone. Authentic German food, children’s activities, crafters, live music and dancing will be part of the Highlands Business Partnership’s 13th Annual Oktoberfest celebration.  Executive Chef Butch Greenwaldt formerly of the Hofbrauhaus is preparing the menu with plenty of traditional German favorites hot off the grill such as bratwurst, knockwurst, kraut, potato pancakes, goulash, sauerbraten and Bavarian noodles along with other tasty fare to please the kids and those less adventurous.Quench your thirst with plenty of Oktoberfest Beers, both light and dark, and Coors Light provided by our proud beer sponsor, Shore Point Distributors. Bradenbach will perform live authentic German music and the Bayern Verien German Dancers will be sure to get the crowd moving. This year there will be two new contests added to the Oktoberfest fun. Festivities will include a “Best-Dressed” Contest, and a “Beer Stein Holding” Contest with special prizes. There will also be a Super 50/50 drawing with 50% of the proceeds going to the lucky winner. The rain date is October 6th from 2 – 8 p.m.For more information go to www.highlandsnj.com or call 732-291-4713
