Our MissionPlease join us at the Charles L. Whitney Education Center at Gjerloff Prairie on June 8, 2024, from 5pm until 9pm for an evening of prairie awesomeness! Enjoy strolling on the prairie, live music, a food truck, drinks and local brews by Prairie Pride Brewing Co. and amazing auction and raffle items. No tickets or registration required. Come and go as you please.
Check back here on May 29 when we launch the pre-Party website that includes a countdown to June 8, an amount-raised meter, raffle and auction items and the opportunity to purchase some Prairie Plains merch.
