As just about everyone already knows, BRORA threw a great progressive dinner party for the 25^th Anniversary. Everyone knows, because everyone was there! The turn-out was overwhelming. The last head count was 36, not including canine friends. Most of the local gang came and we had Utah folks show up from all along the Wasatch Front.

Thanks to Main Street Artisans (Linda, Eric and Rhonda especially), Rick Stevens, and Tom and Betsy Wagner for the taste delights. We started the day with quiches and muffins at the newly rebuilt Warming Hut. The Bear Claw Yurt tempted us all with pasta salads, jumbo shrimp, Deviled eggs, Swedish meatballs and cheesy rolls. Rick and sis-in-law Tina outdid themselves with Dutch oven pork tenderloin, savory salmon, rice dishes, veggies and rolls. Those of us who could still make it up the hill headed back to the Warming Hut and those famous Wagner crepes, and chocolate-raspberry cupcakes.

Thanks to the Joe Wright (for organizing), the USFS, the BRORA board, and everyone who helped make it a memorable day. Skiers, show-shoers, photographers, friendly folks all around; we enjoyed a day of giant snow flakes (Yes, even the weather was perfect!), beautifully groomed trails, fresh air, friends, and fun.

There’s a rumor that we might have to have a “2^nd Annual 25^th Anniversary.” It was that good!
