… but that didn’t seem to dampen anybody’s spirits last Saturday evening when, for the first time, WindWalkers held their signature event at their Missouri Heights ranch.
By about 4pm last Saturday, Sept. 21, the stage was beautifully set in the outdoor area for cocktails and lawn games. The indoor arena was set up for dinner, a silent auction and dancing to the tunes of a local band, Highway 82. Guests were due to start arriving at 5pm.
Plans quickly changed at about 4:30pm when the deluge began. Mother Nature shed so many tears that numerous mud puddles quickly formed all over the property. Volunteers had to race to move everything to the indoor arena. They also had to create some makeshift bridges to put over the water obstacles so that folks could make it to the party without sinking into the mud.
Despite the challenges, the event was a success.
When it rains, it pours
