Beer Tent Theme Now Harvest Garden

 

Woonsocket – The Autumnfest Steering Committee is pleased to announce that the Beer Tent at Autumnfest will have a new theme:  Harvest Garden. The objective is to harvest new community relations in developing new traditions.   Along with a new theme comes a new vendor to operate Harvest Garden.  That vendor being Savini’s Pomodoro & Ciro’s Tavern lead by its trio management team:  General Manager Abre McDonald, Owner /Operator Jill Moylan and her husband Matt.

 

Moylan, Business Developer for Savini’s Pomodoro & Ciro’s Tavern says, “This is an exciting opportunity to collaborate our efforts with the Autumnfest Committee to be able to continue this tradition for years and decades to come. We recognize all hard work from past volunteers, organizations, and sponsors who have made Autumnfest spectacular every year.

 

Moylan goes on to say that many aspects will remain the same at Main Tent and there will be some changes such as layout, its ambiance, and expanded beverage offerings.  Staying the same will be the same variety of beers and canned cocktails offered thanks to McLaughlin & Moran, longtime partner and vendor of Autumnfest.   Entertainment will continue to be offered at the Main Tent on Friday night, All day Saturday & Sunday, plus Monday afternoon of Autumnfest Weekend.   In addition, many of the larger entertainment acts once playing in the tent, will now be playing at the Main Stage, which will feature its Lawn Tent also serving alcoholic beverages.

 

Some of the changes consist of tent layout being reversed so guests enter the tent for immediate coverage, having its outdoor courtyard to the rear.  The stage will host various music entertainers.    The alcoholic drinks will now be served in cans, for example Budweiser beer cans versus kegs which aligns with today’s industry sporting and music venues throughout.    Also, look for select Spirits to be served in cans including cocktails, wine, and seasonal mules and sangria.

 

“There will be other exciting changes we hope everyone will enjoy,” said Moylan.  “We hope everyone embraces what we will be presenting, and we hope to make Main Tent at Harvest Garden a much more inviting place for people to attend during Autumnfest Weekend.”  

 

 

Venezuela has a new leader today. Delcy Rodriguez, the former vice president, was sworn in as head of state Monday following the U.S. capture and removal of President Nicolas Maduro to face criminal charges in New York. Rodriguez, an ally of Maduro, condemned the U.S. military action and referred to Maduro and his wife as heroes being held hostage. President Trump has said the administration will work with Rodriguez for now, provided she meets U.S. demands.        Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee are out with two new reports about the aftermath of the January 6th Capitol riot five years later. The Committee looked at the 16-hundred people pardoned by President Trump for their participation in the day's events. At least 33 of them have been convicted, charged or arrested for crimes since, including child sexual assault, production of child pornography, possession of child pornography, rape, conspiracy to commit murder and several more.        Funeral services were held Monday for Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of former President John F. Kennedy. Former President Joe Biden and former Secretary of State John Kerry were among those in attendance. Schlossberg died last week at the age of 35 just weeks after publicly revealing she'd been diagnosed with leukemia.        The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is no more. It was announced Monday that the board had voted to dissolve the organization, citing the loss of federal funding and sustained political attacks. The corporation had for nearly 60 years helped fund educational and cultural programming, including many PBS shows like Sesame Street, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, Frontline, NOVA and Masterpiece.        Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials say a mountain trail has been reopened after a suspected deadly mountain lion attack last week. Wildlife officers euthanized two mountain lions believed to be connected to the incident and ended a multi-day search for a third animal.        A documentary on the making of the final season of "Stranger Things" is coming to Netflix. "One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5" will be released on January 12th.
