The last Muirfield Mingle of 2024 was hosted at Shawnee Station Tap Room on October 8th, and it proved to be a remarkable event. We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to J. Larkin, John & Susan Neely, Chef Travis, and Craig Baldridge of Shawnee Hills Blooms for their invaluable contributions to its success.

 

Upon arrival, guests received a name tag and had the chance to enter a 50/50 raffle, which served as a fundraiser for Shawnee Hills Blooms, a non-profit organization focused on enhancing the beauty of Shawnee Hills.

 

Susan Neely distributed drink tickets along with raffle tickets for a chance to win one of five gift cards to Shawnee Station. A special thank you goes out to "J" for generously donating the gift cards. John Neely set up a tasting table, offering complimentary samples of some of Shawnee’s finest brews for those who wished to enjoy.

 

The evening's highlight was the introduction of Cooper Meinke to Chef Travis. Cooper has demonstrated a strong passion for the culinary arts, and Chef Travis kindly invited him to work in the kitchen to gain new skills. Both received a framed article from the October issue of Stroll as a token of recognition.

 

Laughter and vibrant conversations filled the veranda throughout the night, creating an atmosphere of warmth and community. Guests mingled, shared stories, and established connections that would continue beyond the event. The delightful aroma of Chef Travis's culinary creations wafted through the air, tempting everyone to savor his exquisite dishes.

As the night concluded, attendees left with smiles, eagerly anticipating future gatherings. 

 

The success of the last Muirfield Mingle highlighted our vibrant community spirit and the dedication of all participants. We look forward to crafting more cherished memories together in the coming year. Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey.
