Thirsty Donkey Day & Goodbye to Veronica

We bid adieu to Veronica at our front desk in Guest Services.  She is moving up north so must leave our beautiful resort.  Thank you, Veronica, for your service here.  You have been a great help to many of us.  Good luck in your future endeavors.



Our summer activities people scheduled a fun event at the Thirsty Donkey establishment.  14 of us attended and had a FUN time.  






As part of our event, we enjoyed some delicious appetizers and a sampling of three different brews from their vast selection.  

These tater tots covered in cheese and meat were my favorites.  Yum!


Boneless wings with several dipping sauces were a close second.


Richie was there to talk about the different kinds of beer and brewing methods.  There are over 40 different beers to choose from.  You can sample them by the ounce or take a glass of your favorite.



I counted over 24 TV sets from where I was seated.  On a game day, the place is abuzz with eager patrons.


We also got a brief tour "behind the wall" of taps.  It is a maze of tubing and kegs in well refrigerated rooms behind those tap walls.''


Say Hi to KD and Shauna.  KD is one of the day shift cooks and Shauna was our fun bartender for the afternoon.  The restaurant is owned by Greg Mauer.  He loves to do some of the cooking along with his daughter Taylor.

The bar will now be serving three kinds of steak dinners Thursdays through Sundays.  Once snowbird season starts, they will also have a soup of the day as they expand their menu.

Shauna tells us that "Manny" is the entertainer on Thursdays and is really great.  Music Bingo will be held on Tuesdays with Karaoke on Mondays and ladies night on Fridays.  


When visiting a public place, you don't often talk about the restrooms but I thought these sinks were fascinating adding to a nice decor.




Season tickets for activities went on sale yesterday.  Phone or fax your orders in soon.
