Shake off the winter blahs with a bit of healthy outdoor competition at the Paoli Winter Games. The shindig kicks off with a soup contest at 1 p.m.; $6 bottomless sampling bowls raise funds for nonprofit Paul's Party. Interested cooks should sign up in advance at the bar. The games are from 2-4 p.m., and it's free to participate, but bring a partner (teams of two are required) and your sense of humor. (Athleticism not necessary, but the ability to catch a brat or slam a beer may be helpful). If you're in more of a spectating mood, music by Shekinah King follows from 4-7 p.m. indoors.

media release: The Hop Garden will deliver an afternoon of winter fun unlike anything else! Participate or Spectate! Either way, fire pits, fresh air, cold beer and warm soup awaits.

1pm - Soup Contest! Compete or Eat! Proceeds to benefit Paul's Party. 

2-4pm - Winter Games! Bring a buddy and go head-to-head against other teams of two to see who can throw an empty keg the farthest, toss and catch a brat without dropping it, hold a stein of beer the longest without spilling and hammer it home the fastest in Hopenslaugen. Athleticism isn’t necessary for these winter games, but a sense of humor most definitely is.

4-7pm - Live Music in the Loft by Shekinah King!

4:30pm - 2022 Winter Games Winner and Soup Chef Announced
