of Brewster Rhoads

May 7

MadTree Brewing

 

  • This May, we have a rare opportunity to celebrate a living legend.

    For decades, Brewster Rhoads has fought tirelessly for causes and campaigns to, in his words, “make the world a little more just, peaceful, healthy, equitable and sustainable.”

    He chose Adventure Crew as his way to invest in the next generation, our “Future Brewsters.”

    On May 7 at MadTree Brewing, we’ll gather for “The Rhoast,” an evening of storytelling, laughter and fun-loving mischief, emceed by Thane Maynard. 

    An extraordinary lineup of roasters — including Rob Portman, Bob & Hope Taft, Ted & Frances Strickland, Jan-Michele & Eric Kearney, Roxanne Qualls, Tim Burke, and Dick Celeste (by video) — will join us in honoring Brew.

    The evening will also launch the Rivers & Rhoads Fund, which will fuel pathways to the outdoors for city teens through Adventure Crew for decades to come. Become a "Rhoast Host" to help jump-start this bold investment in the next generation of outdoor enthusiasts and changemakers.

    If Brewster has inspired you, this is a moment to celebrate him — and to help carry his legacy forward. 

    We hope you’ll be part of this extraordinary night.

 
 

Special thanks to our Rhoast Hosts
