Made in Michigan: A Happy Hour

Inspired by Lansing Jaycees Secretary Abby Siegel's plan to only eat at local restaurants throughout 2012, our first happy hour of the year is taking place at Bagger Dave's, a Michigan-based restaurant that only has Michigan-made beers on tap.

Please join us Friday, Jan. 27 from 5:30 to about 8 p.m. for our inaugural happy hour of the year. This social event is a great way to catch up with your fellow Jaycees, or meet new friends.

In addition to the great, local beers you can sample, Bagger Dave's also has "legendary burgers" and Belgium-style French fries.

Feel free to call Lauren Leeds at (989) 482-1232 with any questions.

The Made in Michigan happy hour is sure to be a blast. Hope to see you there!

Lansing Jaycees are invited to judge at the event, even with no prior experience. A brief crash course on how to judge will be offered at the start of the event. Also, you get a free lunch.
