Our 300th celebration kick off party on September 28th was a great time.  Attendees enjoyed food from the Stones, entertainment, a photo booth and lots of fun.

And the “umms” have it!
Despite the  downpour, we had a crowd at the 300th table!  The weather rather did in our magic cash booth, but it was a fun day anyway. Thanks to everyone who came out in the rain and voted in our contest on the proper way to pronounce the name of our town -- and got their souvenir voting stickers.
