Tap into Your “Wild” Side
Rod and Gun Club’s Wild Game Feast
This February go wild at the M.A.C. with the Wild Game and Fish Buffet Feast on Friday, Feb. 9 at 6 p.m. in the Downtown Clubhouse’s Art Lounge. This event is a great chance to swap “wild” stories about the one that got away and taste foods not usually on the menu.
Members who would like to do so may donate fish and game to the M.A.C. for the feast. This ensures that there will be a wide selection of items you don’t usually get to eat. Donations will be accepted early and M.A.C. Chef Alan Hellyer will prepare the dishes for the feast. These will be accompanied with a salad bar, pasta and vegetables.
