It was an amazing turnout for El Paso’s 70th anniversary and See Ya Party. So many people came out to share their stories and memories. The Tamms will retire and close the bar for good at the end of September, after their last scheduled wedding reception takes place.

After 70 years, it’s time for the Tamm family (left to right) Tanya Tamm, Jodi Rajkowski, and Tasha, Carole, Denny and Ashley Tamm to say goodbye to the El Paso. Even though they are saying goodbye to the bar, they will never say goodbye to all the memories they had with each other and all their loyal customers, Carole Tamm said.

Party goers didn’t let a little rain stop them from coming out and packing their favorite bar for one last time Aug. 22.
