*Thank you, Thank you* to the dozens of volunteers who helped to make the Potato Fest & the Apple Cider Fest a *big* success. We sincerely thank the bakery crew for the countless hours that you all give, the 'wrapping' crew who bags all the goodies, the 'labeling' crew who takes care of all the containers, the 'loading and transporting' crew who load & deliver the baked goods to & from their destinations, the folks who staff the tents at the festivals & the SFU Men’s basketball team who have helped us at the Potato Fest for many years. We thank each & every one of you, because without the 'team-work' & dedication, none of this is possible. May God bless you always. ~~~ *Another Big Thank You* to everyone who donated a record of over 200 baskets, the delicious goodies, the beautiful plants, & to the Activities Committee crew & friends who graciously donate their time pulling this fundraiser together every year.
