17th Annual Destination Independence Walk

04.14.21

For the past sixteen years, friends and family have joined parents and children of the Blind Children’s Learning Center for a 5k walk to raise funds and awareness of their organization.  This year, due to COVID guidelines, the walk will be taking place in a relay format, allowing participants to enjoy each other and the festive atmosphere of the walk at a safe, social distance.

The event provides funding for BCLC’s three areas of focus: Academic & Mobility Support, Family Support Services, and Early Intervention. All of these programs are vital to the Blind Children’s Learning Centers families as they cover braille training, white cane mobility, parent education and training, and more.

The relay will take place on Sunday, April 18th from 10 am – 3 pm at Mater Dei High School’s track in Santa Ana. There will be live music, entertainment and outdoor dining available to all participants. Individual registration is $29 per person age 9+ which includes a t-shirt for the event.

It is recommended that participants work in teams of at least five walkers or more. Teams are able to go up to about 50 walkers in size while still remaining physically distant. Team captains will be responsible for scheduling each participant’s time on the track.

Rad Brat Presents Sausage Fest

04.14.21

Break out the lederhosen and get the beer steins ready for Sausage Fest at Rad Brat on Saturday, April 17. Visit Dana Point’s newly opened fast-casual, specialty eatery from 11 a.m.–10 p.m. to experience unique German sausage creations paired with an array of Bavarian brews on tap from Rad Brat’s lively indoor and open-air atmosphere.

Courtesy of Enegren Brewing, a local and independently owned craft brewery specializing in German-inspired beers, the beverage lineup will showcase four of the brand’s most popular offerings to complement Rad Brat’s special Sausage Fest menu including the Rad Brat signature bratwurst, a Currywurst and additional German sausages. Save room for menu favorites including the McTwist, a hand-twisted soft pretzel with housemade cheese sauce and the Pretzel Dog—an all-beef dog on a pretzel bun with cheese sauce and salt bits.

Join in the festivities by dressing up and participating in the beer stein holding competitions throughout the day.

Enegren Beer Menu

Edel Pils - Crisp, clean and refreshing traditional German-style Pilsner. Brewed with German Pilsner malts and German noble hops, this is an easy-drinking summer beer with just enough hop bite.

Maibock Spring Lager - German-style helles bock brewed to celebrate the coming of spring. This strong spring lager has a lightly toasted and moderately sweet malt profile balanced with spicy and floral German noble hops.

Schöner Tag - Schöner Tag, which means 'Beautiful Day' in German, is a traditional Bavarian-style hefeweizen. Brewed with over 65% malted wheat, the beer is unfiltered and cloudy from the high-protein content in wheat. The signature flavor in this beer is the banana and clove flavors produced from the yeast fermentation.

Dunkel - The Munich Dunkel, a dark German lager, is one of the maltiest and smoothest beers from Enegren. German Munich, Melanoidin and debittered chocolate malts give the beer a rich and complex malt flavor unique to this style of beer. Hints of caramel, chocolate and toasty flavors provide additional depth, and a slight hoppiness balances the beer for delicious full-bodied brew.

Rad Brat is committed to the health and safety of guests and staff and adheres to guidelines put forth by local and state agencies and the CDC. 

34091 La Plaza, Dana Point.
