Cutter Race Weekend!!
What is referred to - and certainly is - the biggest tailgate party in Jackson, the Shriner's Cutter Races, finished this afternoon in light snow flurries and thundering hoofs! What a great weekend!
This year's challenge was to build a "camp" that Roy Chambers, turning 85 in a few days, could cozy up in and enjoy this 40th year of Cutters Races. Michael pulled out all the stops; the hunting camp wood stove, a EZUp tent with sides, the Weber grill, Mr. Heater, and good old country music for Roy. Why he liked it so much, he came both days!!
Thanks to the great crowds, the Shriner's Hospital should get a nice bit of money. The saying for the race, "The Cutters run so the children can walk." What a great way to raise money! Here's a few more pictures from the weekend.
Looking forward already to next year!!
