The event was on August 9, 2008 at Mendon Ponds Park. We had hundreds of racers for the 5K and even more people at the picnic. The Auction was a great success and the raffles were a ton of fun. We had SO MANY raffle items that it took all day to give them all away, and that was with us calling out numbers every 15 minutes.

A cake made for the picnic.

The band STOOL showed up to play during our clean-up. Tom, Jeralyn, and Terri got up with the band to sing a few songs.
