BeefFest- Well Done!
The Deep Creek Ruritans recently held their 42nd Annual BeefFest. The family-oriented event included pony rides, inflatable play structures, Blockheads, remote control monster truck races and awesome music from the band This Time Around. Cheers to the Ruritans for their continued effort to make our community a better place to live and work.
