Elk Ride 2015 at Benezette

Forty plus members of the SSRT met at Newman's Sandwich Shop for breakfast on Saturday, November 7. The meals were prepared and served quickly and they were great. We then drove to Benezette to meet up with CMATVA members to join in on their Elk Ride-everyone contributed two unwrapped toys for the toy drive. We toured roads to see Elk and then ate a meal at the Benezette Restaurant. We all toured the winery and most bought gifts and wines. We got to see a successful hunter with a skinned Elk and at the end of the day we spotted two Eagles sitting in a tree. A great way to get out and ride atvs with your friends, socialize and enjoy the day. Just an awesome time!!
