This was the 44th Annual Harvest Festival which, for members, began at 6:00 am.  And we succeeded without the Captain Bob

Following its conclusion late in the afternoon, we received the following message from President Glenn:

“I am so tired (and I know I'm not alone) but I had to say a quick word of thanks. This was an exceptional Harvest Festival! Despite many obstacles, we pulled together and made this one of the best Harvest Festivals ever.  I have more to say, but maybe tomorrow. For now, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!!!!!!!!”

Glenn

Your editor does not know the final results financially, but we did run out of hamburger buns and barbeque sauce.  My report in this Rowel is in the photos below.

The following 9 photos are your editors.
