People flooded to the fourth annual Ormond Beach Beer Festival as “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” emanated from the Rockefeller Gardens stage, where The Click was playing a variety of 80s tunes on Saturday, May 13.
I don't know why we ever left Ormond Beach. It's the best. Every time I drive over that bridge to go home, I can't believe I'm back. I'm so happy. - Kerri Hinds, Ormond Beach resident
The Rotary Club of Ormond Beach organizes the event to generate funds for its ongoing mission to help local community families and children in need and support local charities, according to the club’s website. This has been the club’s mission for 68 years.
Patrons had the opportunity to sample over 100 beers provided by 35 breweries as well as purchase food from a variety of vendors.
This was the Hinds family’s first time at the festival. They lived in Ormond Beach 25 years ago and returned in 2020 after living in Atlanta. Mom Kerri Hinds has fond memories of their time in Ormond. They currently live half a mile from the first house they bought.
“I don’t know why we ever left Ormond Beach,” mom Kerri Hinds said. “It’s the best. Every time I drive over that bridge to go home, I can’t believe I’m back. I’m so happy.”
