Hi Al-we know you are still recouperating from your big time yesterday but inquiring minds want to know: how did it go? Any funny stories to tell? (You didn't get locked in a bathroom again, let's hope not!) Regards, Cindy

Hi folks. Sorry it took so long for an update but it was tiring and has been busy. The day was great. Weather in the low 70's and sunny. About 200 adults and 50 kids showed up for roast pig, chicken, burgers and hot dogs and salads. Fresh fruit and ice cream for desert. Games for the kids and some for the adults. Raffles and a dunk tank. Strangely Lee made the most money being in the tank. Don't know why everyone wanted to dunk her. LOL. All in all it was a great day and $8000 was raised as well. Good family, neighbors and friends sure do help. Couldn't have done it without each and every one of them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. AL & Lee and family.
