We had a great day at the River Park. We counted nearly 60 kids plus house parents from the home. The weatherman was wrong and the rain held off. We had probably the best and largest group of volunteers as well.Fishing however wasn't quite as good as last year but they still had a great time. One young girl caught a large snapping turtle and courageously brought him up under the shelter for all to gawk.
Special thanks to Glenn Shimmell, LA and Marla, Dano, Jeff Mills and Mike Davis for bringing their boats and taking all out for rides. Also, Julie & Steve Copley for cooking the chili, Za
ch Holshouser for furnishing the worms, Glen Shimmell for the hot dogs, Danny Ray for 25 NEW fishing rods and Ellen Wagoner for donating a doz hats which came in handy when the sun finally came out.Also, we had lots of help with the fishing and serving. New members Cal and Krista Flannery, Paul Flahive, Brad Walworth, Audrey Dennis and our intrepid ER Kevin Frey and Sec. Vanessa Eanes. There are others I'm sure I've missed but a great job was done and one that these kids greatly appreciate.
