TUESDAY LOWDOWN: Help a McKinleyville Kid Live His Dream by Drinking the Beer He’s Not Legally Allowed To
Walter is too young to drink. That’s where maybe you come in.
They’re really making this easy for you.
You may have heard that Walter Morton, a McKinleyville High School football standout and Hoopa Valley Tribe member, has been selected to play in the prestigious 2025 Native All-American Football Game. Boom. Pretty great, right?
I’ll bet you’re thinking, how do I claim a small piece of that success? Great news: You can!
See, Walter’s big game takes place on Dec. 14 in Minneapolis, which is a long way from Homeboldt. To help cover his travel costs, Six Rivers Brewery is hosting a “Pints for the Playmaker” event on Tuesday night. All you have to do is show up and drink beer (which many of you were likely going to do anyway).
You’ve got this, friends. Details on the event and others are in your Lowdown below. –AG
