On Saturday, August 6, attendees will gather at our new home on the beach, in between the Steel Pier and Landshark Bar & Grill, to celebrate the summer, sand, surf and of course, cider. This event is built to be “social” and will move each year to a different spot throughout the city to showcase all that Atlantic City has to offer! How about them apples? The 2016 Atlantic City Cider Social present
ed by Atlantic City Weekly. This year’s Social will be a true Jersey Shore experience featuring ciders & meade brewers, local food vendors, cooking demos, live music, cider seminars and amusements, all on the BEACH! An exciting addition to the event will be a beach Bonfire. Dress in your best beach gear and leave your shoes at home! A few years ago, ciders were a super-sweet, rare find sitting at the edge of the alcoholic beverage world. In its current state, cider is becoming more diverse and appeals to both beer and wine drinkers. It is no secret that cider is rising through the ranks of beverage popularity among all demographics. The goal of The Atlantic City Cider Social is to promote and educate attendees on ciders as well as the brewers that create them. This event is the perfect opportunity for cider aficionados, cider lovers and the casual cider drinker to speak to the company representatives and brewers responsible for some of their favorite ciders. The Cider Social and Good Time Tricycle Productions are excited to name the Gilda’s Club of South Jersey the charitable beneficiary of The Cider Social. Gilda's Club South Jersey is a cancer support community where men, women, teens and children with cancer, and their families and friends, are always welcome free of charge. Its mission is to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action, and sustained by community. Gilda's Club South Jersey is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that solely relies on donations from individuals, foundations and corporations in order to provide a free community of support to our members. www.gildasclubsouthjersey.org
