August Events

Hi everyone here is a quick event blog between blogs.


First off, last weekend was the Car Kulture Show. There were thousands of people and hundreds of hot rods, classic cars, motorcycles and just about anything else with wheels that you'd hope to find. There was also music, photo booth van, food all over the place. However, I was with my wife and her folks so I was lazy.  Here are a handful of pictures I took and some links to see more.

This Saturday we have two other big events.


First is the Pillars of Lakewood Wing Crawl this Saturday from 1pm - 7pm. People will be going to 13 different bars and restaurants and trying two different types of wings from each. The event is basically sold out but there may be a handful left at a couple bars. It's a good event that gives you a chance to check out a bunch of our Lakewood businesses and see what type of wings you like the best.

Last but not least is the LKWD Music Fest at Mahall's. Mahall's: “The LKWD Music Fest began in 2012 because we (the Mahall’s team) wanted to have a summer block party with music, food and friends in Lakewood.” Basically, there is a ton of great music, food and community fun going all day long. You should go. There is no logical reason not to. You can hear music outside and/or inside with the air conditioning. You will want to eat food at some point and you can use this to fulfill that need. You might be deaf and full from the wing crawl, then you can go bowling to work off that weight and get a drink mixed with their mixers made in the bar. So, I'll see you there.

Saturday Celebartion!

Get ready for one of Lakewood's biggest bar event weekends. Every Bar in Lakewood has been invited to four different events this Saturday. There's a wing crawl, a classic car and music show, a pot luck, and a wedding reception (congratulations Steve and Beth!) This should be a great weekend for you to make a dent in our list of all the bars.

First off is the Pillars Wing Crawl. You'll be able to get 4 wings at each of the 11 bars participating. You'll also get to ride around in the shuttles. The cost is $20 presold, you can buy them online or at the partipating bars. You get five bucks off if you are part of the Pillars. The bars are Around the Corner, Avenue Tap House, Midtown Booths, Deagans, Eddy and Iggy's, Harry Buffalo, Jammy Buggars, the Local Bar, Merry Arts, Plank Road Tavern and the Riverwood Cafe. If you buy online you can pick up the passes tomorrow at the Local between 12:30 and 2pm. The crawl will last from 1 pm till 7 pm. Come out and try some of the best chicken wings in Lakewood and vote whose is the best. Drink beer, eat wings, it's the democratic thing to do!

That's not all, Madison Avenue will be rocking all day long as Lakewood throws it's 10th annual Car Kulture Show. The show runs from 10 am till 6pm. You'll get to see plenty of classic cars, including hot rods, vintage race cars and even custom made. There will also be plenty of chopper and bobber style motorcycles. There will be vendors offering everything you can think for the hot rod and cycle enthusiasts. Music will be outdoors for most of the day and move into the Screaming Rooster with the Straight 8s at 3:20. After the show ends you can catch more rock-a-billy playing Straight 8s at 9pm back at the Rooster. The Red Hot Heathens Burlesque Troupe will be performing between their sets. During the day don't forget to stop in the Rooster, Mars Bar and Beer Engine they helped sponsor this fantastic event. Make sure you stop on by, it'll be running before the crawl and it's free!
