Forrest McCurren
Open Space Brewing presents Forrest McCurren on Thursday, March 14th, 6pm
Doors open at 4pm / Music starts at 6pm / $5 suggested donation
About Forrest:
Forrest McCurren comes from the heart of the heartland, where the foothills of the Ozarks meet the Big Muddy: The Middle-of-Missouri. Blazing his own trail while stylistically tipping his hat to the songwriting giants of the past, McCurren wields the magic of lyricism to cast a light on the many intricacies of everyday life set against vignettes of Middle America. Tackling topics such as: wise words from waitresses, heartbroken high school football standouts, and tattooed trailer park lovers, McCurren writes songs for good people that got bad grades in school, are drunk on dreams, and still trying to figure out if life is sour or sweet.

Santa Clara Mountain Bike Group Ride
We’re making this group ride a regular event! At least 2x a month! Thanks for your interest and coming out to ride!
This weekend’s ride will be on the intense yet shorter side at only 3 miles but we will work for it! This loop on the Cross Country Loop features a nice winding downhill all the way down to the creek-bed and then back up over the hill via the “Dragon’s Head” including the top-most loop and then back to the brewery. Hopefully this ride gets us more familiar with the Cross Country Loop and the connections to the Dragonfly Trail System.
Optional: try this loop for a 2nd lap, and in the opposite direction for more fun strength training!
Please find Alexa in the parking lot by 10:50am, as we RIDE @ 11am!! Join us on this ride and get $1 off your 1st pint of craft beer or non-alcoholic beverages! Ride on!
