Ekone Ranch's Barbed Wire Ball

Come one, come all...we throw the gates open wide for this event! It's an affordable, super-fun, family-friendly weekend, in celebration and support of Ekone's land conservation and education work. This year all donations support Ekone's new Conservation Fund, and the acquisition of two critical parcels for Sacred Earth Foundation!

~AUCTION of Remarkable Art, Unique Goods and Exciting Experiences
~SHOWCASE of Ekone specialties, including Hiking the Land, Horsing Around, and Warming Your Heart
~MUSIC Guaranteed to be Danceable
~FOOD from the famous Yummy Tummy Cafe, including barbeque & brunches
~CAKEWALK and oh boy do we know some Good Cake Bakers...
~BEER & WINE GARDEN in the woodshed, of course, with Syncline Wines and local beer!
~CAMPING and other Accommodations if you can stay over

Come for the day or the whole weekend!

A few fussy details:
~Lodging is limited (camping is not!) If you'd prefer a roof over your head, contact shonie@ekone.org to reserve a space in the Longhouse, or consider booking a room at the Quality Inn (509-773-5881) or Ponderosa Motel (509-773-5842) in Goldendale, 25 minutes from the ranch.
~Kids 5 and under attend for free!
~We have many volunteer opportunities--email liz@ekone.org if you'd like to help!
~Please don't bring dogs, we have enough of our own...
~The Ball officially begins on Saturday at 10am and ends on Sunday at 2pm. Please contact us in advance if you're interested in arriving early or staying late.
~Ticket sales and auction items cover the cost of offering this event for Ekone's community. We hope that you'll also donate as generously as you're able, during the "paddle raise" portion of the live auction!
