High school sports shift to full practices
TWELVE PERCENT BEER PROJECT
By Greg Lederer Record-Journal staff
In looking to bring high school sports back amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference has emphasized the importance of a gradual process that can change on a daily basis. At the end of last week, state schools learned that they had moved one key step closer to returning to regular-season competition on Oct. 1. Last Friday, the CIAC sent out an email to athletic directors informing them that schools could move from cohorts to full-team practices as part of phase two of their sports plan. The move went into effect Monday. Twelve Percent Beer Project, located at 341 State St. in North Haven, held a ribbon cutting grand opening Thursday, Sept. 3. Twelve Percent Beer Project partners with local craft brewers Abomination, Fat Orange Cat, Marlowe Artisanal Ales and Skygazer, as well as wellknown national brands American Solera, Hoof Hearted, Omnnipollo, Stillwater, to name just a few, to brew world-class beer and seltzers. Come out and visit Twelve Percent and enjoy your favorite beer. They also offer cans of beer to-go, and home delivery from their website, twelvepercentbeerproject.square.site.
