That’s a wrap on the 6th Annual Hayward Lions Club Oktoberfest! 🍻

THANK YOU, Hayward! We couldn’t have asked for a better crowd to spend the day with us at the Sawyer County Fairgrounds.

From Jolly Zuk Brothers keeping the pavilion moving to stein holding, axe throwing, great food, cold drinks and plenty of Oktoberfest fun, it was a great day from start to finish.

A huge thank you to all of our sponsors, volunteers and everyone who helped behind the scenes to make this event happen.

Most importantly, thank you for supporting the Hayward Lions Club. Oktoberfest is our largest fundraiser of the year, and your support allows us to continue giving back right here in our community throughout the year.

We captured plenty of the fun along the way! Take a look through the photos, tag your friends and relive Oktoberfest with us. 📸

Prost, Hayward! We’ll see you next year! 🍻

A little extra Oktoberfest love for our vendors! 🍂🍻

We had such a great group of vendors join us for this year’s Hayward Lions Club Oktoberfest, and we want to give them a proper THANK YOU!

From food and treats to handmade goods, local businesses and plenty to browse throughout the day, you helped add another great piece to this year’s event.

Thank you for setting up, spending the day with us and being part of the 6th Annual Hayward Lions Club Oktoberfest. We appreciate every one of you!

Take a look through a few of the vendors who joined us this year, and be sure to show them some love when you see them out in the community.
