Looks like plans are going foward and should be open this summer. I am keeping my fingers crossed. http://hdra.net/ 1969 Plymouth Road Runner 440 auto 2017 Ram 1500 Quad Cab 5.7 Hemi

This past week it has finally been warm enough for most of the snow to melt. I may take a ride by the proposed site next month when fishing season starts and I will be in that part of the state then. Maybe someone who lives in that part of the state can check it out sooner? 1969 Plymouth Road Runner 440 auto 2017 Ram 1500 Quad Cab 5.7 Hemi
