With temperatures in the 70's and hardly any humidity, it was a perfect afternoon for the seafood bake. For $30 we served half-chicken, a lobster, steamers, corn, fried fish, mussels, clam fritters, burgers and dogs. You definitely did not walk away hungry. With over 90 tickets sold the serving line moved rather quickly. It was a fantastic day. Tunes (and commentary) from John Villa were delightful, even the food servers were danc'n between courses. We also had some awesome prizes for the raffle, thank you to Bruce & Betty for shopping and the donation from Mike Cardinal (fishing rod) and Pat Ceruolo (George Foreman Grill). Many thanks to all those helped put on this sell-out event, including the grill crew, the kitchen crew, the fire pit crew, Trap crew and the horseshoe contest coordinators. Thanks to the Pratt family for the donation of corn and the Garner Saw Mill for the donation of firewood. The list goes on and on. Thank you to ALL for your support. And we can't forget to say thank you to Ricki for chairing this annual event.
