June 13th.. the HOLE-IN-THE-WALL-BAR gets a little more outlaw.

Join Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid - or at least the crew from the Double R Store - as they take over the bar for one legendary day.

Cold drinks, good stories, and enough western chaos to make the outlaws proud. So grab your posse and meet us at the Hole-in-the-Wall-Bar in the Hot Springs County Museum on June 13 from 11am to 8pm. (After the Trail Blazer Day parade)
