Thank you Keith for the idea, it was overwhelmingly a success. And for those who may not have seen the Final Table at our Rose City chili cookoff, here it is. Thank you Wanda for the black tablescloths and candle holders. Also a picture of the hand-painted ceramic platters trophies
Mark your Calendar for May 14th and 15th. The final CCO in our buckle series is going to be held at Super C Labor Day at the Lake. It is like LJT, but with bull riding, fishing, boating, volleyball tournaments, plus motor cross. You name it, they've got it! It was a great time last year. They came to us about having CASI there this year, instead of Bar BQ like last year. Adam is already doing some amazing advertising. He is one of the founders of the PBR, so he has lots of connections. We are super excited about this, and can't wait for it to kick off. This is his 3rd year doing the music festival and he sees many years to come.
