BLAIR COUNTY-Thousands came to the Blair County Ball Park to help the cause, and of course drink beer. It is the third year the fundraiser has been held.Each year the event has raised more than $40,000. All money goes toward the Central Pennsylvania Humane Society. "We have a lot of great generous sponsors, they actually pay for all of the cost for the Brewfest. When somebody buys a ticket, it's 30 dollars, it goes right to the Humane Society, every penny," said volunteer, Rick Vanevenhoven. Organizers hope the festival will get bigger every year.
