Are any of my Missoula peeps available for about an hour on Saturday, June 8th? I need someone to be a grill master at our Working Equitation show, at The Big Sky Horse Park. Every thing will be prepped and ready to go, we just need someone handy with a tongs and a flipper who won't burn the place down! Time will be from 1130-1230. Sleeping Willow Ranch is donating some of their amazing Wagu beef, and we will feed you as well. Hit me up if you are available!
