COWBOY LUNCH RIDE – Friday June 28, 2019 -- Each year, the ride takes you along a scenic route to a different ranch location to enjoy their cowboy chuckwagon cuisine and get an up-close look at ranch life! Lunch consists of custom-made all-beef beer brats, home-cooked beans, salad, drinks and cookies. After lunch there will be a presentation on the operations of the ranch with an emphasis on watershed management. Sign up for the Cowboy Lunch Ride when you register for the rally. Space is limited, so sign up early! Cowboy Lunch Ride cost is $15 (non-refundable) to benefit the Grant County Stockgrowers Association. We will ride (or drive) to the ranch starting from the Main Gate at 10am, Friday. Be sure to start with a full gas tank.
TEAM OREGON CORNERING SKILLS CLASS --This class will be offered once on Friday and once on Saturday.
