Raffety opened another restaurant in another town.
But at least thereâs only 10 miles between the two.
Raffety owns The Main Event with her dad, Jay Raffety.
In the midst of the pandemic, they decided to buy the former Frontier Restaurant in downtown Haines.
âItâs such a huge space with so much potential,â Kari said. âWe spent all Christmas (break) and January in here.â
The space is divided in half with the restaurant on one side and the bar on the other with a pool table and a shuffleboard game.
The Raffetys installed new flooring and lighting, painted the ceiling, replaced tables and chairs, remodeled the bathrooms and added an ATM machine and lottery machines.
