Eureka Rendezvous Days Hot-rods & Buckskins

WhitefishRadio.com braved the rainy cold weather and headed north on April 24 for the 32nd Annual Rendezvous Days in Eureka, MT. The clouds parted and sun shone for the duration of the Hot-rods & Buckskins Parade.



Our Zooniacs, hosts of the Saturday morning kids program featuring Jungle Jack Hanna, made lots of new friends while handing out animal toys to the young spectators. It was great to see our friends from the Whitefish Winter Carnival Royalty atop their float with Yeti & Penguin accompaniment.



We found a great place to set up "camp" among the classic cars and enjoyed meeting our neighbors for the day. The Zooniacs gave away more great prizes and shared some of their expansive knowledge about the animal kingdom.

A big THANK YOU to the Rendezvous Days folks for inviting us and to the great people of Eureka for hosting us; we had a great time and are looking forward to next year!
