EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (WEAU) – 12 years ago, Jody Kreibich met her husband, Jim Kreibich at Country Jam.
“I was in VIP and I went out to the Bud Light tent in the back and he was there again and actually my sister said she found him, she found ‘him,'” Jody said.
Now, Jody and Jim are back at Country Jam, but for a different reason. They attend the music festival for their new business, Tin Can Mobile Bar.
Kreibich’s started the Tin Can Mobile Bar in May, serving drinks and parties, festivals and other events.
“It’s been really good. We came off a busy graduation season in Hudson, and now we’re here,” Jody said. “We’ve done some things around the county in Saint Croix. So now, we’re starting that kind of company and we’re looking for more opportunities like that and corporate opportunities, things like that.”
Jody said her favorite part of the business is the people.
“I think we’ve met so many wonderful people and connections,” Jody said. “I mean, here we are. We just started in May and now we’re at Country Jam in the VIP. So I think the connections we’ve made with people are really good and everybody’s happy.”
Both Jody and Jim said returning to the music festival feels very special.
“It’s surreal,” Jim said. “Again, when you’re on the other side, you’re partying more and having a few drinks and stuff and then you come back here and think, ‘Oh, this is our ten-year wedding anniversary.'”
“It’s meaningful to be back here with this business 12 years later with him by my side,” Jim said.
They both remember how Country Jam is where it all started.
“It’s a place where I’ll always say, ‘Hey, this is where we met,'” Jim said.
Jim said the Tin Can Mobile Bar is equipped to serve both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. They have also hosted an ice cream event.
