Iowa Indulgence JDRF Fundraiser:  (Date To-Be-Determined)  This event will benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.  The date and specific details have yet to be determined, so please watch our future E-Mails for more information!  What we can tell you is that this event will be an elegant, full-course dinner served in the midst of a rural Iowa cornfield.  All items served will be of Iowa origin, including locally-grown meats and vegetables.  Even the wine will have been made right here in Iowa!  Following the dinner a barn-dance, with live band, will be held in our Party Barn.  It'll be a foot-stompin' good time!  Watch for more info!
