If you can’t make it to Munich this weekend, how about a ride to Princeton instead? Oktoberfest is being celebrated Saturday at the Bureau County Fairgrounds.
You’ll be greeted with authentic German music and the smells of traditional German food according to Kathy Costerisan, one of the people putting it together. There will be costume and polka contests.
Oktoberfest at the fairgrounds will cost you $5 at the door plus $10 for dinner. Drinks, which will include a variety of German beers, are extra. The doors open at 4pm. The food will be served from 5-8p,. The music will go until 10pm. It’s a fundraiser for the fairgrounds.
You can learn more about it by listening to an interview that’s available at the WLPO AM and FM news page.
