Spring Creek BBQ Spirit Night
Mark your calendars to join us in a few weeks at Spring Creek BBQ for our TCE Spirit Night. A portion of the proceeds will benefit TCE, and some of our TCE staff will serve as guest hosts for the evening. The three classes with the most participants will each receive a keychain, $10 gift card, and a Spring Creek BBQ shirt which will get you free ice cream anytime you wear it to Spring Creek BBQ. We hope to see you all there!
