Cash prizes will be awarded to weight class winners, as incentive for the competitive athlete, and the novel experience of competing at a brewery is set to welcome those who are chasing an electric and supportive atmosphere. The State Championship seeks to attract and unite all lifters, regardless of federation, therefore the event will be unsanctioned.
