Our next Pints for a Purpose benefit evening is just around the corner, December 2nd, and we’re excited to feature WaterWatch of Oregon as our next donation recipient. Of course, when we say “our recipient” we really mean yours, too! We’ll give $2 for every pint of beer sold at Standing Stone from 5-10pm, so the more people we see in the brewpub, the more we’ll raise together for this great cause.

Here’s a bit about WaterWatch, from the organization’s website:

Without WaterWatch, many of Oregon’s rivers and streams would run dry. Unbelievable but true.  In fact, during key dry months in almost every river basin in Oregon, there are too many water rights and not enough water to go around. Even in the 21^st century, it can be legal in Oregon to drain our rivers until they are bone dry.

That’s what WaterWatch works to prevent. For 28 years, WaterWatch has protected and restored water to Oregon’s rivers, streams and lakes for fish, wildlife and people.  Our work isn’t glamorous. It can be difficult. We keep regulators accountable. We speak for the public interest. We pass balanced water legislation and, when necessary, we go to court. Our goal is to ensure a legacy of healthy rivers in Oregon.

There are many forces working to take more and more water from Oregon’s streams and rivers. Please join us to help ensure that there is enough water in our rivers for fish, wildlife and the people who depend on healthy rivers. Our quality of life depends on it.

Last month we had record-breaking numbers of fans show up to support Rogue Climate with Pints for a Purpose. Let’s do it again! As always, we encourage everyone to drink responsibly. So let’s get friends, fans, moms, dads, brothers, sisters, and that one guy all together to have a pint of craft beer for a good cause! Tuesday, December 2nd from 5-10pm…see you there.
