So my earlier thread got split off (good decision, by the way). But since I need to put a lot of these competition deadlines together for myself, I figured I'd do it for everyone:

Hangar 24 Comp - http://hangar24brewery.com/homebrew.htm
Entry: Printed forms, due with beer
Due Date: May 15 (THIS SATURDAY)
Comp Date: May 22
Dropoffs
Hangar 24, Redlands CA
The Bruery, Placentia CA
Morebeer, Riverside CA

Sam Adams Longshot - http://www.samueladams.com/promotions/L ... fault.aspx
Entry: Electronic, see above link
Due Date: May 17 to May 28
Dropoff
Morebeer, Riverside CA

OC Fair - http://www.ocfair.com/competitions/pdf/ ... 20Beer.pdf
Online Entry Due Date: due MAY 22, Electronic
Beer Due Date: May 17-29
Dropoff
O'Shea Brewing Co, Laguna Niguel CA
Steinfillers, Long Beach CA
Hi Time Wine Cellar, Costa Mesa CA

SD Fair - http://www.sdfair.com/fair/pdf/10entry_homebrew.pdf
Online Entry Due Date: due MAY 19, Electronic
Beer Due Date: June 27 (judging done on-site, same-day)
Dropoff
SD Fair, on-site

That covers May, as far as I can tell (someone tell me if I'm missing any).

Reminder -- Dropoff for Sam Adams Longshot is this Friday, and for OC Fair is this Saturday.

Next up:
Inland Empire Brewing Co Pro-Am Competition
http://www.iebrew.com/proam/
Entries Due: June 5, 2010
Dropoff Location - IE Brewing Co, Riverside CA

Given that the dropoff is way out in Riverside, is anyone willing to make the trek out there with a bunch of entries? I'd propose Addison Homebrew as an interim dropoff point, if they agree.

The actual comp dates are July 17 and 18. The deadline for drop-off entries is July 2. July 1 is the deadline for mailed entries.

I will be entering my Bock, Vienna, German Pilsner, American IPA, and Wit. I will also be judging both days.

If anyone is making the trek to Corona to drop off your entries, let me know and I will meet you at Main Street for a beer.

Have they contacted you about judging yet? I hope to judge this one too. Depending on how my beers turn out I may or may not have anything to enter.

I haven't been officially contacted yet, but I talk to those guys all the time so they already know I will be there. Once I get the official invite, I will forward to the club so interested people can get signed up to judge or steward.

Hey Brad, I will be dropping off my entries Tues. between 5 and 6 at Main Street if you can stop by to hoist a few.

[Andysam]

Is anyone in the OC area going to be droping off bottles for this? I will not be able to make it during business hours. But it someone is going out there, I wwould really appreicate it if I could drop them off at your house for you to bring out there for me.

This could be a possibility. I will send you a PM with my phone number.

There are a bunch of dropoff points. If you want to bring them down to my place (Laguna Niguel) I can get them over to O'Shea during business hours easily.

Just got home from the 23rd Annual Southern California Regional Homebrew Championship. Brewcommune almost got shutout at this one. I only walked into the award ceremony just before it ended, but brahn was there the entire time. I believe the only ribbon we got was a 2nd place for my Traditional Bock.
