The liability is handled by the two different Rotary Clubs that hold the events. It is not covered by ADA. The glasses MUST be empty before going out the door. That information is provided to attendees at check in. I find it best when the serves also remind participant they can’t carry it out before they pour. I’ve seen some attendees will request a shorter poor or share rather than choose to stay to finish or dump the drink. Door monitors posted are at every location.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>More about the events:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://albanywinewalk.com/">Downtown Albany Wine Walk</a> - Albany Rotary Club<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>The story:</b> This is held on exclusively on 1<sup>st</sup> Ave. The streetscape on First Ave. was done many years ago and made for a more upscale feel for attendees. For many years in included “upstairs” loft tours, but as more of the lofts are completed and rented the upstairs aspect was removed in 2017 (although is still on some materials). It was quite a draw to have the tours, but the event has grown and will do well either way. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>The basics:</b> Wineries are hosted inside a variety of businesses. There are appetizers at every stop. Tickets for additional tastes may be purchased at designated locations.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>ADA Involvement:</b> We have no direct connection to the event. Albany Rotary Club does everything – working with the wineries, finding locations, ticket sales, etc. ADA supports them holding the event Downtown by including it in our marketing, attending and encouraging merchants to get ready for company by staffing appropriately, adjusting hours to gain shoppers, clean up the sidewalks, etc.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://www.greateralbanyrotaryclub.com/craft-brew-smackdown/">Craft Brew Smack Down</a> – Greater Albany Rotary Club<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>The story:</b> This event is deliberately not on 1<sup>st</sup> Ave. It is on 2<sup>nd</sup> and 3<sup>rd</sup> Aves. to give different merchants a chance to be part of the event. It provides a different take on our Downtown, although 2<sup>nd</sup> and 3<sup>rd</sup> Aves are undergoing a streetscape right now – so soon they will be the shiny penny! <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>The Basics:</b> This event is breweries, cideries and distilleries – although this year there were a couple wineries also. There are appetizers at every stop. Tickets to the event include a mug, map and some tastes. The presale this year was online. Sales day sales are available. Tickets for additional tastes may be purchased at designated locations.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>ADA Involvement:</b> We are directly connected to the event. Greater Albany Rotary Club coordinates the full event, secures the brewers, handles the presale of tickets and publicity. ADA finds the locations. They must be an ADA member to participate (I signed up two new member who were of this event). Merchants provide a space, appetizers and a door monitor. ADA coaches the merchants on layout and food. We host a brewery at our office and offer a <b>fantastic</b> spread of appetizers from numerous local restaurants. We also included the event in our marketing and encouraging merchants to get ready for company by staffing appropriately, adjusting hours to gain shoppers, clean up the sidewalks, etc.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Cheers!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>Lise Grato<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class=MsoNormal>Executive Director<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Albany Downtown Association<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>126 SW Ferry Street<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Albany, OR 97321<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Email: director@albanydowntown.com<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Phone: (541) 928-2469<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cell: (541) 905-2908<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> OMS_MANAGERS [mailto:oms_managers-bounces@listsmart.osl.state.or.us] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Henry Katie * OPRD<br><b>Sent:</b> Friday, November 17, 2017 12:26 PM<br><b>To:</b> Oregon Main Street program managers <oms_managers@listsmart.osl.state.or.us><br><b>Subject:</b> [OMS_MANAGERS] Do you have a Pub Crawl or Wine Walk?<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Hi Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>One of our Main Street Managers would like to know which Main Street towns have a pub crawl or wine walk event with the participants using the same cup/glass and going from business to business.
