The Annual Dinner event was absolutely awesome! Our staff sure did work hard and pulled the rabbit out of the hat again! Thanks all – you did a great job!
The evening was so wonderful – renewing friendships and chatting with members and the lots of new faces – it was just fabulous.
I loved the dessert auction – and the cake and pie we got at our table was absolutely scrumptious!
The evening was again wonderful – what more can I say – I’m out of adjectives.
Congratulations on an absolutely outstanding event! The organizers and staff presented a first class event which has become a wonderful tradition for a steadily growing community of supporters.
