Ribs and Rides is scheduled for Wednesday, June 3rd in Worthington.

Jim Elsing, representing the Historic Dayton House, explained on Wednesday morning that he put together a group of four in an effort ti make the community aware of "the beautiful assets that we have here in Worthington." The Historic Dayton House will host a meal, Prairieland Transit will provide shuttle bus transportation and the Lake Improvement Association is going to provide pontoon rides.

"I wanted to put this together because I think that the exposure of the Prairie Land Transit System is important because this is an asset that isn't fully used," Elsing said. "By having the Dayton House meal and the pontoon rides from Lake Okabena Improvement Association, I believe it'll be a good awareness of the beauty of what we have in our community."
