Bat-oberfest

press release: This Halloween pre-party will be a blast for the whole family – costumes are encouraged! Capital Brewery Co., Inc. is hosting Bat-Oberfest to raise awareness and money for work to conserve Wisconsin bats. Beverages and snacks will be available for purchase with a portion of proceeds from the sale of Bat-Oberfest beer to be donated to the Wisconsin Bat Conservation Fund to support research, monitoring, and protection efforts for Wisconsin’s native bat species. The event will also include a special showing of the film “Battle for Bats,” documenting the race against the clock to save bats from white-nose syndrome – a deadly disease affecting millions of bats in the US and threatening bats here in Wisconsin.
