Costume Contests in the Chippewa Valley

We're not sure where we're going or what we are going to be dressing up as for our theme for Halloween, but we're definitely going to spend time drinking and checking out the many costumes everyone else will be wearing. Last year we accepted pictures from readers of themselves in their Halloween Costumes. Our winner was "Dirk Damage" with his version of Ash.



So let's do it up again. Last year we put up $20, but this year we're going to increase that mark. So email us your pics for a $50 bar tab from Eau Claire Bars - the Blog at the bar of your choice! Send us your best Halloween Costume Pics after the Halloween Weekend. Our team of party-goers will vote on the best pic from those entered and we'll post the winning pic by November 15.

For those of you looking for a costume contest we've decided to throw a list together for the blog. Information about these contests comes from news sources throughout the Chippewa Valley including the Leader Telegram, Various Websites, & VolumeOne.

Eau Claire Bars - the Website & Omnibus Edition

So we've been active for over a year now and we've had over 10,000 unique visitors to the site looking for information about the bars and night life of Eau Claire, Wisconsin. This has been a really great time and fun experience for us.

We are currently in the process of passing along some more information and details about bars in the Chippewa Valley. Our blog posts are great, but we want to start giving our visitors other bits and pieces of information on the bar scene in Eau Claire. We want to start allowing our visitors to add to the reviews and add to the content of the website. So watch for some changes soon, some small and some big! Look for Eau Claire Bars - the Website to be introduced alongside Eau Claire Bars - the Blog. It's been a very intoxicating year and we look forward to the next!

That being said, we've been very busy and haven't thrown up everything we've wanted to as far as pictures and video go. So... we're going to start tossing up pictures and video from the past few months to this post. A sort of Eau Claire Bars - the Blog Omnibus edition!
