Shotgun Annie's Permanently Closes

    1 year ago By Ellen Mortensen
    Shotgun Annie’s in Callaway hosted its 8th annual Little Wranglers Toy Drive last month which concluded with a party on Dec. 15. You might say it was the last “hoora” for the business. Owner Candace Burnett announced in a Facebook post that Sunday, Dec. 29, was the final day of business for the restaurant and bar.
