Thank you to everyone who bought and sold tickets for this important fundraiser.

Just a short article this month, as the event is being held after the due date for the newsletter.  I will be getting with everyone to get a full report to the membership for the next newsletter.

I would like to take a minute to THANK ALL OF YOU THAT ATTENDED THE EVENT. You’re the reason why we hold this event every year. Thank you all again for coming I hope you all had a great time at your party on your land! I am sure for months afterward when you bump into someone you saw at the “hummer” you will be sharing those memories made there.

And THANK YOU all of you that made this event possible.  This event takes almost a year to plan out. The committee starts working on this July or August until the event is over and all the garbage is picked up.  All the work at the land starts at Land Warming in May and without all those people making the grounds look good from the long winter rest. From there many hours of dedicated work go into this to make it a fun, safe, and hopefully a profitable event. From selling raffle tickets, bartending and picking up garbage every helper no matter the job needs a big hug or handshake along with a personal thank you!!

If you have any ideas for improvements or if you want to be involved with the planning of this event let Robert Worm Grasse know. He will be very happy to welcome you into the Hummer Crew.

This event is something special and so is everyone involved in it. May it continue for many years.

Next month will be the final report Thank you again.
