BUSINESS PROFILECHERRY VALLEY

Driving down historic U.S. Highway 20, halfway between Cherry Valley and Sharon Springs, you see it on the side of the road. It’s been there for as long as most people can remember. It may be your destination, it may be the first time you’ve ever seen it, or it may be that you drive by all the time, telling yourself, “The next time I go by I am going to stop.” It is listed in the national and state historic registries and has been in business for 75 years. You see it there, nestled in the rolling hills of Otsego County. It’s The Tepee!

That’s right, The Tepee has been in business for 75 years! And all are invited to join the festivities on Saturday, October 4 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. as The Tepee celebrates its Diamond Jubilee. High on the Hog food truck will be joining in on the fun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and so will select vendors. Bug Country Radio is broadcasting live from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and The Happy Haggs Dance Troupe will be making an appearance at 12:30’ish. There will be door prizes (a chance to win up to a $75.00 gift certificate) and giveaways (get your wooden nickels while supplies last). The first 75 customers will receive a Tepee tote bag with purchase (one per customer). Oh yes, and there will be cake.
