Road Rally Thank You

Submitted by admin on Wed, 12/12/2018 - 7:45am

We would like to thank Burreson's, as they allowed us to use their driveway to send out our Rally people, and then to have to stop there again to get their next clue and purchase beef ramen noodles, which we donated to the food pantry! We also want to thank Edelweiss for letting us make that the 2nd stop, pick up the 2nd clue station!! After that, it was a long but absolutely gorgeous ride to get to the Cork Down Saloon, which is right at the entrance to Yellowstone Lake Park. We enjoyed their hospitality as by the time we got there, we were starving!! The food was delicious!
