BRIEFLY Wednesday, July 26, 2017 Chuckwagon celebrates 47th anniversary with specials HERMISTON — Chuckwagon Cafe owner Cathy Stolz is offering “crazy” specials July 24-29 to commemorate the restaurant’s 47th anniversary. In addition, there will be surprise drawings and on-the-spot anniversary announcements, she said. The cafe is located at 81027 N. Highway 395, Hermiston. “When you hear the dinner bell clanging, you’ll know someone in the room is about to win big,” Stolz said, referring to the large, iron triangle hanging on the wall. Established in 1970, the Chuckwagon Cafe has been at its current location since 1979. Prior to that it operated from the building that now houses The Nickel. The cafe’s first location, which burned in 1972, was a small drive-in/diner on Highway 395 where Motel 6 now resides. The cafe has supported local fundraising projects throughout the years. In addition to actively participating in Hermiston’s annual Community Fellowship Dinners each Thanksgiving and Christmas, Stolz is proud of honoring veterans each year on Veterans Day with a free SOS lunch.
