A big thank you!

What a day!! It was the perfect setting for the Grand Re-Opening of our Butler restaurant. The sun was shining, the air was crisp, great tunes and DJs from 92.1 KMOE, support from the Butler Chamber of Commerce, City Council Representatives, the Mayor, and the Bates County Sheriff's Department.

Plus, $1.99 Happy Meals meant many, many happy families!! And everyone won with the Prize Wheel! Thank you to everyone who came out to help us celebrate.

We are so grateful for the Butler community, and all of Bates County. We're excited for what's ahead. Come on in and share a meal with us. We'd love to have you! -  Courtesy of Butler McDonald's
