Amador County – The Jackson Rancheria this week announced the return of its annual Holiday Hay Rides at the Jackson Rancheria Casino, Hotel & Conference Center. Rancheria publicist Carol Cook said the Holiday Hay Rides are a great way to “Celebrate the holidays Rancheria Style. Jackson Rancheria Casino, she said, is “offering one of the most popular local holiday traditions in Amador County, the annual free Holiday Hay Rides.” The Hay Rides feature a festive ride around the extraordinarily decorated Rancheria, which will glow with more than 2 million lights. After that comes a visit with Santa Claus for children and refreshments for everyone. Cook said this year the rides will be offered 5-8 p.m. Monday through Thursday, December 7th through December 17th, beginning and ending at the Jackson Rancheria Fire Station on Dalton Road. Cook said parking for the Hay Rid is available in Lot Number 6, across Dalton Road from the firehouse. She said attendees should dress warmly and bring their cameras because it is a great family photo opportunity. The Rancheria will also be collecting toys for the annual Jackson Rancheria & Amador County Sheriff's Office Christmas Toy Drive.
