The 2nd Annual Lucky Beaver Bar & Burger Crowns Golf Tournament held in September raised $50,000 for Ronald McDonald House. The sold-out event was hosted by Lucky Beaver Reno and Lucky Beaver Tahoe locations and took place at the Lakeridge Golf Course. This was no ordinary golf tournament. Golf ball cannons, water cannons and a chance to win a $250,000 Malibu boat from the West Coast Boat Center, plus $10,000 in cash made the day super exciting according to several teams that participated.

“It’s all about people,” said Mike Leeper, co-owner of Lucky Beave and Burger. “I want to thank our sponsors, players and staff at Lucky Beaver for their continued support of our community and our restaurants. We are fortunate to have charities like Ronald McDonald House in our community and it is an honor to have the ability to help out whenever we can.

The team that won the perpetual Lucky Beaver Tournament Cup was the team of Auston Byak, Paul Windt, Cory Tritt and Apolo Poth, with a score of 15 under par. Several sponsors also participated in the tournament to support the cause.

“It was an amazing event!!! I am so proud of our Lucky Beaver Bar & Burger Reno and Tahoe team for all their hard work in producing such an amazing event to support so many families in our area. Ronald Manor McDonald’s is a blessing to our community and we look forward to partnering with them for years to come,” said Lucky Beaver Bar and Burger co-owner Pat Farrah.

Lucky Beaver’s $50,000 donation will contribute to the more than $800,000 operating budget Ronald McDonald House Charities endure each year.

RVA FASHION WEEK

FLEMING ISLAND | Corks & Barrels, considered the first of its kind in Clay County, is preparing to open on Fleming Island.

James Henson, who is about to retire after serving 27 years in the United States Navy, owns the tasting-style wine and whiskey bar and lounges at 1824 Town Center Blvd, Suite 101 near East West Parkway.

“Hopefully we will open late next month [October] or early November. It’s a very fluid date. It’s been very difficult to find subcontractors and supplies and things of that nature,” Henson, an aircraft maintenance manager, told The Times-Union last week.

“When I considered opening this one, I knew it would be very popular here because there is no other establishment like ours. We are very unique in our approach,” he said. declared.

Art Bar co-owner Andy Rodgers likes to compare the lifespan of a bar to that of a dog — bars, like dogs, don’t usually stick around as long as humans tend to.

“Seas live as long as dogs live, you know,” Rodgers said. “It’s like… you know, a bar has been running for 17 or 18 years, that’s a good run for a dog. Thirty years is just crazy, it’s amazing because it’s so out of the norm.

Its longtime Vista watering hole is far from the norm — surviving 30 years of change and growth as one of Columbia’s oldest and weirdest bars.

Art Bar opened on September 18, 1992 when the arts and entertainment district, the Vista, was in its infancy – back then the arts district was very different, according to Vista Guild general manager Abby Anderson. There were only a handful of businesses in the neighborhood, two of them being Art Bar and Motor Supply Company Bistro, two Vista staples.

“The Art Bar is something the rest of Columbia doesn’t have, so it’s very unique that we have it in the Vista,” said Abby Anderson, executive director of the Vista Guild. She called the Art Bar a “unique and funky thing”. that celebrates what Columbia is.

The original owners, Clark Ellefson and Jeff Helsley, decided to open a place unlike anything Columbia had seen. They achieved that goal – bartenders, regulars and former employees alike said the bar is unlike any other in the city, with its quirky decor, friendly staff and laid-back atmosphere.

Thirty years later, the eclectic bar just off rue Gervais attracts everyone, according to bartenders and regulars.

“Art Bar is an open bar for everyone,” said Will Woodward, who has been an on-site bartender for 10 years. “I truly believe anyone can come in and be welcomed as long as they welcome others.”

The bar was one of the first in Colombia at the time to openly and actively welcome members of the LGBTQ community – a decision that often confused it with being a gay bar, so much so that it has for years won ‘best gay bar’. in Colombia in the Free Times Best of Columbia awards.

But it’s a label the owners and staff casually reject, the same way they reject any other label for the bar. From being a spot for older, longtime regulars to attracting more of a younger crowd in recent years, the bar doesn’t fit in a box. And he’s proud of it.

“We didn’t want to be the live music venue, or the dance club or the gay bar. I mean, we wanted to be all of that,” Rodgers said.

The “everything” is honored each evening during the various events of the Art Bar. Mondays are Movie Mockery night, where local comics “make the most of really bad movies.” On Tuesdays, the bar hosts open-mic comedies. Wednesdays are the iconic karaoke night. Thursdays are trivia. Every weekend the bar hosts a range of live music and DJs.

The bar has made changes since its inception. When it first opened, the bar was stocked with a handful of beers and had a microwave in what is now a supply cupboard to heat up bar food. The bar now offers over 80 beers on tap, including craft beers unreleased in the early 90s, and a cooking program led by Steve Gibson.

Bartenders not only had to run the bar, but also keep the songs lined up in the early days before the Art Bar started offering live music and DJs, at a time when there were few venues in the city for alternative and live music.

“At that time, The Whig didn’t exist, Transmission didn’t exist, New Brookland wasn’t where it is now,” Phill Blair said. Art Bar was like the place to go. Blair worked as an on-site doorman in the early 2000s before working and becoming the owner of The Whig, a beloved dive bar on the corner of Gervais and Main.

While much of what became of Art Bar – the unique and welcoming staple right next door to Gervais – was intentional, one aspect of the bar was not – the robots.

The art spot is often referred to as “the robot bar,” Rodgers said. The bar’s logo even features a minimalist robot head outline. But robot-mania was born on a whim.

“The crazy thing is that robots didn’t show up until 10 or 15 years after Art Bar opened and it was luck and kind of luck,” Rodgers said.

Then co-owner Jeff Helsley found someone selling a handful of vintage robots. Helsley and Ellefson bought them, cleaned them up and they became an instant hit with bar patrons.

“People loved them,” Rodgers said. “I don’t think anyone ever really imagined it would be so popular.”

The robots and other artistic decor, the familiar bartenders and the simplicity of the place have been attracting regulars and keeping them coming for decades.

Kerry Johnston has been on site since it opened and now manages the bar’s social media. Johnston came to Columbia for college and said the Art Bar has always been a special place because of its staff and the care it gives to bar patrons.

“I feel safe there,” she said. “I know all of their customers are taken care of… One of their biggest priorities is keeping people safe, so you know as a woman growing up at Columbia, she’s always been a place where I knew I would be safe.

Long Islanders can take a trip back a few decades when the ’90s-themed Nostalgia bar and restaurant opens in Bethpage on September 29. This new venue, which takes over the former One Eye Jacks space, will feature a pop culture explosion that will impact the menu, drinks and decor.

The Clevelander is one of South Beach’s most famous hotels, and of course tourists love it too. But a restaurant owner wants to bring locals back with a new sports bar concept that only true Miamians can enjoy. Deco’s Alex Miranda, who enjoys a cold beer at any bar, has the details.

Ray Finkel? Where am I?

Jim Carrey (as Ace Ventura): “I’m in Psychoville and Finkle is the mayor. Where is Dan Marine?

Relax, Ventura. It’s right here – inside Kush in Clevelander, a new sports bar and restaurant at the iconic Ocean Drive hotel!

Bruce Siegel: “Anyone coming to South Florida, wherever, you know, you gotta stop in Clevelander.”

But sorry, tourists. This CRF graduate wants to take over SoBe.

Matt Kuscher: “It’s a Miami-themed sports bar, and if you’re not from Miami, you probably won’t get it.”

Matt Kuscher is the mastermind behind some of the burgers etc. the most popular and award-winning in Miami, Hialeah and now South Beach.

Alexander: “The vibes are there and the food is always on point.”

Like this bang bang shrimp.

Alexander: “I love seafood, and it hit me today.”

And does anyone else fancy their exclusive Kaptain Kush, brewed by Tank in Doral?

Matt Kuscher: “So right now, because it’s so early, you’re probably the only person in the world drinking this beer.”

Uh, thanks for calling me, Matt.

Matt Kuscher: “And then we also have our version of an Aperol spritz called ‘I Still Call It Joe Robbie’.”

And check out this quote “Cocaine Cowboys” director Billy Corben made famous.

Matt Kuscher: “‘Miami is a sunny place for sleazy people.'”

But why would he say that?

Alex Miranda: “Yeah, we’ll be parking soon. See you later! Two more, please!

And brother, it’s like super Miami here, literally.

Matt Kuscher: “Miami has its own language, and most cities don’t, and I feel like a translator of that language for the rest of the world.”

Through food…

Alexander: “The Kush Cubano, with the fries, the pulled pork. I’m so excited to dig right now.

Alex Miranda: “Yeah, but you’ve already eaten, haven’t you? You’re not that hungry.

Alexandre: “No, I’m really hungry.”

Alex Miranda: “OK, well, I’m hungry, so goodbye.”

But also art.

Matt Kuscher: “I have Kimbo Slice. The Don Shula highway there.

And that…?

Matt Kuscher: “A unique piece by Dan Marino/David Hasselhoff that you will never see anywhere in the world.”

But not so much… Florida.

Alex Miranda: “I know you’re from Florida.”

Matt Kuscher: “Uh, I’m not.”

Alex Miranda: “You are absolutely from Florida.”

Matt Kuscher: “But I’m from Miami, though.”

Alex Miranda: “Good. Miami, Florida?”

Matt Kuscher: “No. Miami-Dade County.

Alex Miranda: “Florida”.

But, with their 20 TVs and even a Pitbull-worthy VIP room, everyone is welcome, even from Florida.

Matt Kuscher: “Just do good things, and do them well, and it’s going to be fine.”

SOUTH DENNIS – What would it take for Cape Codders to return to theaters in huge numbers? Plush reclining seats? Alcoholic beverages in a full bar? Have dinner while they watch? Places you can reserve?

These are all amenities Bill Hanney is betting nearly $1 million on for a phased renovation of 10-screen entertainment theaters to transform the long-running movie theater by this fall into a Mid-Cape outlet hub. for couples, groups of friends and families.

According to his plans, what was a large video game area should become an on-site bar/café, with around 30 seats at tables for people to gather for drinks and food before or after a movie, said Hanney. . Or patrons can order beer, wine, cocktails and food to take with them into the theater, to be set up on their individual trays on the recliners at the location they have pre-booked.

“A theater of destination”

Hanney said he applied for a full liquor license and would bring a machine to mix a variety of cocktails to customers’ specifications, with ID required at a few different stages to purchase. There will also be sound and picture quality improvements in cinemas during the refurbishment, although the existing equipment, he said, is already of superior quality.
