I would like to THANK our awesome TEAM of volunteers that made this year's Lenten Fish Fry's a huge success. We were super busy tonight with it being our last night. I truly appreciate all of the hard work that goes into preparation, ordering, cooking, planning, staffing, on and on... we couldn't do it without our volunteers and most of all, the community member's that continue to support all of our Park Committee Sponsored Events!

Thanks again, I am grateful to be a part of such a great community!
