After 19 years of business, Jackson’s popular
restaurant Bonanza closed its doors last week. Bonanza was well known for its
great steaks, hearty drinks, and raucous company. Owner Larry VanAnda,
who is 69 years of age, told TSPN, “after only two vacations in 19 years, I am
beat. It is just time to retire.”
He also said that there were a couple of parties interested in purchasing the
place, and that there is talk of continuing the restaurant and also making
Bonanza into a cowboy nightclub venue. “I would like to thank all of my
patrons, I had a great time and have lots of fond memories,” VanAnda said.
