Ascension Parish is ready for a party at its Social Center, 19 Sumner St., Batavia, on Saturday, headlined by The German American Musicians and beer.
It's Oktoberfest time.
The German American Musicians is a 25-member band founded in 1933. It is a not-for-profit cultural organization dedicated to the cultivation and performance of the traditional music and culture of German-speaking lands.
Oktoberfest organizers said in a statement, "Our Oktoberfest creates an opportunity to gather as a community to listen to fine German music, to dance and sing, to eat and drink and appreciate one another."
The event is scheduled from 5 to 10 p.m.
