Elk Viewing Carriage Ride, Gourmet Dinner and Wine-Tasting

Thunder Bay Resort, Hillman 10:00 A.M. – 4:00 P.M. Thursday, October 19

Enjoy the fall season with a special treat for yourself! Described as a “real-life fairy tale” and declared by USA Today as a “Top 10” Event come with us to the famous Elk-Viewing Carriage Ride, Gourmet Dinner and Wine-Tasting. Horse-drawn carriages take our group through the wooded resort, over a wooden bridge that crosses the Thunder Bay River as guides fill the ride with interesting stories, facts and history of Northern Michigan and the elk. The ride will take us to the charming Elk Antler Log Cabin filled with antiques, trophy mounts and a massive split stone fireplace. Sit back and enjoy as culinary artists and owners, Jan and Jack Matthias prepare your hearty gourmet five- course lunch on antique wood cook-stoves as you watch.

After lunch, your carriage ride continues into the Preserve; here you will get an up-close look at majestic bull elk. Then, it is back aboard the carriage for the return trip to the bus. This is the exciting fall rut season; hopefully we will hear the bulls bugle and see them spar for dominance.

Registration Deadline: Oct. 2

Event Details

Jealous of Snow White’s beauty, the wicked queen tries to “eliminate” her but later discovers that Snow White is still alive and hiding in a cottage with seven dwarfs. The queen brings a poisoned apple to Snow White, who falls into a death-like sleep that can only be broken by a kiss from the prince. This show has played to the delight of children of all ages. The exceptional score and the caring relatedness of the young girl and the dwarfs distinguishes this version.

This knock out show includes Melissa Hager, she is a funny gal that tells her tales of growing up on a farm, her love for gluten, and her new love/hate for deer hunting. The headliner, BILL BUSHART, has been seen all over the MI comedy scene. He was voted Detroit’s funniest comedian. His humor is fast, interactive, and you just never can tell what he is gonna say next!

The Comedy Series, Michigan’s own traveling comedy club, always puts excellent talent on the stage. Our comics can be seen on Conan, Last Comic Standing, Comedy Central, and Showtime. The comics are hilarious and top notch pros. You won’t want to miss this! See you there!!
