Butte County Veteran Stand Down

09/06/2026

Hi all!!! I want to personally thank my amazing team of veterans who came together to help make the rib cook off at The Bambi Inn a huge success! Without my team I don’t know how we could have made it!! We worked within our community to get the best ribs in town!!

Thank you S&S Produce for the amazing help with the ribs and salad and bringing up the refrigerated truck.

Thank you Johnny On The Spot for the restrooms and hand washing stations.

I also, would love to thank all of our raffle prize sponsors! The raffle wouldn’t have been such a huge success.

Thank you The Donut Nook for the yummy donuts and prize wheel prizes that kept everyone moving with all the goodies.

Thank you to all the vendors, cooks and sponsors that helped the Butte County Veteran Stand Down.

Thank you everyone from our team to yours. We love our community of veteran sponsors!!

Next for Butte County Veteran Stand Down is our Stand Down event at the Chico Elks Club. The Stand Down is October 1-3. Come all veterans to see what our fabulous community has to offer. Registration is now open!!
