Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to Sheila and Jim Belisle for doing a bang up job manning the donation table of delectable
sweets along with serving up chili and chips and encouraging our community to donate to a worthy cause. Alongside these two
in the kitchen a big shout out to Money for keeping me on track with tasks like coffee making and helping to keep the kitchen
running smooth and clean. We could not have such a successful fundraiser without everyone that was involved in setting up
and cleaning up after. A heartfelt thank you to Evan who put up with the craziness over the last couple of weeks leading up to this event. Solid and strong and always there to lend a helping hand.
