Today we’re proud to be helping with the Tall Timber Days Parade in support of an exciting community project! ⛳️

The Children's Discovery Museum of Grand Rapids Minnesota and The Judy Garland Museum are working together to bring a one-of-a-kind mini golf course to Grand Rapids! A fun addition that will create even more opportunities for families and visitors to enjoy our region.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of Northland Ag & Turf, one lucky winner will take home a brand-new Arctic Cat Prowler Pro UTV! Raffle tickets are just $20 each (cash).

We’re happy to do our small part to help. Beginning tomorrow, Biwabik Pizza Co. will have raffle tickets available for purchase in our lobby until August 25th. Stop in, grab a ticket, and support a great project that will benefit the Iron Range for years to come.

Best of luck to everyone involved, we’re excited to help spread the word! 💚⛳️
