Since it's beginning in 1979, Mission Road Ministries’ Shindig has grown from an intimate gathering of 70 friends to become known as one of the city’s most enjoyable charity events attracting 700 attendees. Guests enjoy seeing old friends and making new ones in a comfortable atmosphere with great food, auctions, raffle, live music and dancing - all to benefit more than 700 children and adults with developmental disabilities.
The 32nd Annual Grand Western Shindig was hosted on Tuesday, December 6 at Cowboys Dance Hall where more than 700 guests and nearly 200 volunteers continued the cowboy tradition that makes this event so unique—no black tie—boots and jeans required!
Thank you to chairpersons, Len & Jennifer Harral who created an amazing and successful event.
