S4 E35 - Damsite and a Fall Fest

Helloooooo Listen Local fam! Hope you all had a great week, and who is ready for Fall Festival Weekend at the Babinski Foundation?! But… Before we get into that, the Listen Local crew headed north to Pine River for this episode to visit our friends at Damsite Supper Club. Owner Rob Walton and Manager Ellie Buschmann talk about everything from what all went into opening the restaurant to the type of atmosphere you're going to get when you come into Damsite. Plus, hear about some of their “specialties,” events, Vikings Game days and more. Also, Rob - who is a Pine River native - tells us why opening a restaurant in Pine River meant so much to him. Thanks to both Rob and Ellie taking time to come on the show! Then… Colton, Isaiah and Jacob dive into everything you need to know regarding this weekend's Babinski Fall Festival! They are even joined by Marketing Director Isabel Glover. Isabel breaks down all of the fun - and spookiness - everyone can expect while out there. She also explains more of what the LL crew's role out there, including judging the apple pie baking contest. Annnnd…. They are even going to have an “exotic animals” petting zoo there. There will also be music, games, auction, hay maze and sooooo much more. But, most importantly, The Babinski Foundation will be open and you will be able to adopt dogs and cats on-site that day! So if nothing else, go out and find your future furry family member. Thanks Isabel and The Babinski Foundation for joining this episode and Listen Local is super stoked to be out there this weekend. Among other local happening and news this weekend around the BLA, we have the Pequot Lakes Football homecoming game, our pal Reese Glover performing at both Woodlore Cider and Roundhouse Brewery, Powerball winner(s) in Crosby, and how possibly the last weekend to go out and enjoy the fall colors. So get out and enjoy! Thanks to all of you, our amazing listeners, and of course thank you so much to our sponsors Hanneken Insurance, Lakes Area CPAs, Outlet Recreation Crosslake, Posture Pro Chiropractic and our presenting sponsor Tyler Gardner with Pequot Lakes and Gull Lake Sanitation!
