Spud dig!

Our next event is our spud dig coming Oct 8th!! The dig will start at 11:00 am. Please let us know if you are planning to bring a team. Some horse drawn equipment will be provided. We want to make sure that everyone will have a chance to dig spuds. The potatoes we dig will be available for a small donation per bag for those that would like to take some home. This is so we can reimburse the farmer. We are digging in a different location than last year. See the map below or contact Von.

Lunch will start about 1:00. Sloppy joes and drinks will be provide by the club, so bring a side dish or desert to share.

We will be digging where the X is.
