Members of the Concord Area Homebrewers, Southern Maine Homebrewers and the Winnipesaukee Brew Crew proudly donated a check for $11,326.05 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of New Hampshire on Sept. 30. Funds were raised during their 16th annual New England Homebrewer's Jamboree held at the Tamworth Family Camping Area in Tamworth earlier in the month.
The annual event, which is organized by the Concord Area Homebrewers, Southern Maine Homebrewers and the Winnipesaukee Brew Crew, drew homebrewers from all over New England and broke nearly all the event records. “We had a record attendance, a 50 percent increase in competition entries and the largest donation yet to Make-A-Wish Foundation of New Hampshire,” event organizer Ed Ramshaw said. Next year's 17th Annual Homebrewers Jamboree is being held at the same location Sept. 6 and 7. Visit
