In looking at my file photos I noticed I had taken a photo of Larry & Carrie Parsons who were sitting at a table with Ed & Betty Parker:

Then there was one of the Meisenzahl’s and Roberge’s:

I’m not sure who will be playing the live music, but here are a couple of photos of the band that played in 2003:

And since I couldn’t get them all in one picture, here is a second one:

Then of course if you are hungry, there will be some snacks to go along with the great conversation you can have with friends and neighbors:

Admission will be $5 each or a maximum of $20 for a family with everyone welcome.
