Staff at Lupo, The Masonic Temple, Corn Palace Gift Shop, Corn Palace, Main Street Mercantile, Area Community Theatre, Jokerz Casino II, Village Bowl / Sneakers Casino, Lakeview Golf Course, Motel 6, Westside Sinclair, County Fair Food Store, The Green Room, El Columpio, Meat Lodge, Graham Sinclair, Marlin’s Roadhouse Grille, Cattleman’s Club Steakhouse, and the Cubby’s at 1000 N. Burr were all up to the challenge.

Failing an alcohol compliance test can result in legal consequences for the business and the individual employee responsible.
