FOODFEST SUCCESS!!





Our first foodfest as a club went off without a hitch despite mother nature trying to foul things up. Thanks to all who participated especially for Aisake and his wife Kaycee for getting the tent and working so hard buying and preparing the food and another thank you goes out to Vaughn who was entertaining kids and making balloon animals pretty much the entirety of the event.
