NOTE: With the economy as it is, the HBD is struggling to 
meet its meager operating expenses of approximately $3500
per year. If less than half of those currently directly
subscribed to the HBD sent in a mere $5.00, the HBD would
be able to easily meet its annual expenses, with room to 
spare for next year. Please consider it.

Financial Projection As of 13 Jun 2010
       Projected 2010 Budget  $3305.65
 Expended against projection  $2500.06
Projected Excess/(Shortfall)  $ 422.01

Subject: Dixie Cup XXVII Is Here!

Earn the respect of your wives, husbands, domestic partners, kids
coworkers, and fellow homebrewers by winning a medal (or two) at the
world-famous Dixie Cup.  Dixie Cup is a tradition steeped in history
and barleywine, one of the largest and longest-running homebrew
competitions in the nation.

The Foam Rangers homebrew club is now accepting entries for the 27th
annual Dixie Cup, "Strange Brew", a BJCP-sanctioned competition.  An
unlimited number of homebrewed beers, ciders, and meads may be
entered, but no more than two per medal category.  The entry fee is $7
per entry online, and $8 per entry if paper entry forms are used until
September 17, 2010.  After that, it's $10 per entry until the deadline
of September 24, 2010.

Dixie Cup is also the last leg of the Lone Star Circuit and is an MCAB
qualifying event.

All entries should be shipped to:

Dixie Cup
c/o DeFalco's
8715 Stella Link Rd
Houston, TX 77025
713-668-9440

Entries may also be dropped off in person at DeFalco's or at Brew It
Yourself (25770 Interstate 45 #107 Spring, TX 77386).

Please refer to http://dixiecup.crunchyfrog.net for more information
about Dixie Cup.  All BJCP styles will be judged, along with special
categories "First Time Entrant" and "Strange Brew".  See the website
for details.

Also, do not hesitate to contact the competition director with any
questions that remain after a visit to the website.
