Top Ten Reasons to Come to the Elk Toss - No. 6

The Number Six reason to attend the Elk Toss is...

...the Wagner Farm.

The Wagners will once again host the Elk Toss, Charity Auction, and Winter Festival. This year is even more special since it is our 75th Year!

If this will be your first Elk Toss, you should know a few things about the activities that take place at the Wagner Farm.
1. You will be outside, or in a poorly insulated barn, so you should wear warm clothes and boots if there is snow on the ground.
2. There is a double-seater outhouse.























The Wagner Farm does have a few rules:
1. No Dogs Allowed. The Wagners raise rabbits, chickens, and a peacock named Kevin, and have already had several animals killed by dogs. The Wagners also do not want to clean up frozen dog feces from the yard after everyone leaves.
2. No Smoking inside the barn. Also, please do not toss cigarette butts in the yard, as the chickens will eat them, get sick, and die. Please throw your butts in a designated butt can.
3. Drive and park carefully. There could be snow and ice on the gravel driveway and grass parking area, so 4WD is usually recommended. Parking is limited, so carpooling is recommended. Also, watch out for children and the previously mentioned animals.

Make sure you thank the Wagners for hosting the event.
