"We've been out here for about 3 years now. And there is usually about 150 people here on Tuesday nights which includes a lot of very dirty kids." Say's Merry Hopper, owner of Hopper Ranch. They have always enjoyed the large number of families that come out to watch the fun and enjoy the evening.
"It's good wholesome family entertainment" says Merry. "If the kids aren't dirty, they haven't had enough fun yet!"
