Effie’s Food Trailer

09/07/2026

I am not always good at posting about our food trailer shenanigans because we are having so much fun that I don’t remember to take pictures! We visited so many places this summer and I can’t be more thankful to 1. Be able to spend this time with my kids, and 2. Thankful to the businesses and towns that invite us to come and serve you! Someone asked me the other day where my favorite place to serve is…I was speechless. I can’t pick one place. I honestly liked serving at every location that we visited! That is the complete truth!
This is a list of many of the kind people that we have gotten the privilege to serve in 2026! ❤️❤️❤️

We are excited to try some new menu items for the rest of our 2026 season! We are putting the Birria to rest for the rest of the year and bringing out chicken for our nachos! We still have all of your favorite drinks and of course our Hot Dogs!

We have events through September and the 1st 2 weekends of October…and we will end our season on October 31st and November 1st at Burlap in Fargo! ❤️.

We had the best summer and I cannot thank you all enough for your support of our little food trailer!

We have seen our kids grow and learn the last 2 summers. They are proud of their trailer and we are excited for season 3 in 2027!

Effie’s got to be part of this incredible event! We are so grateful! Red River Communications knows how to throw a party! WOW! Incredible! ❤️😀❤️😀❤️. We had so much fun! Thank you!

Today was a day we'll never forget.

To everyone who came to celebrate Red River Communications' 75th Anniversary with us—thank you. Thank you for spending your day with us, standing in line, showing patience, sharing smiles, and helping us celebrate 75 years of serving our communities.

We also want to again apologize that the event had to end earlier than planned. As temperatures continued to rise and conditions became more challenging, the safety of our guests, employees, volunteers, and food truck partners had to come first. While this wasn't the ending we envisioned, it was the right decision.

Planning a free community event of this size is never easy, and we truly did our best to prepare for as many guests as possible. The incredible turnout exceeded our expectations, and we're disappointed that not everyone enjoyed their free food truck meal. Our team has already discussed a plan to make things right for those who were unable to redeem their meal vouchers. We'll share more information soon.

We also want to extend our deepest gratitude to the Wahpeton Police Department, the Wahpeton/Breckenridge Ambulance Service, and the many community volunteers who immediately stepped in to assist guests who became overwhelmed by the heat. Your compassion, professionalism, and willingness to help made a tremendous difference, and we are incredibly grateful for your support.

A special thank you to the amazing team at Chahinkapa Zoo, our incredible food truck partners, and every Red River employee and volunteer who gave everything they had today—keeping guests hydrated, answering questions, handing out water, and doing everything possible to make this celebration a success under very difficult conditions.

Most of all, thank you to our members, customers, and communities. Your support over the past 75 years is why we were celebrating today, and we're grateful beyond words.

If you attended today, we'd love to hear from you. Please share your favorite memories or photos in the comments.

Thank you for celebrating A Legacy of Connections with us. ❤️
