A special thank you all in the community who supported our event. We served over 800 hungry people Sunday. We couldn't have done this without the help of our 39 Rotary members, their spouses and children. Also, much thanks goes to these community organizations (over 90 in all): Spring Ford baseball, Spring-Ford H.S. Interact Club and the Spring City Pool organization.  The amount of help we had made things go so much faster.  Moving, setup and cleanup went at a record pace.

Thanks much to the Interact Club for their cleanup efforts. Here is a summary of the event: Served 805 -Paying customers - close to a record crowd. 91 Helpers worked the event. We served 1600 links of delicious Hatfield sausage, over 700 glasses of Orange juice 100 apple juice and tomato juice. Tom Droege singlehandedly flipped about 2000 Pancakes. We scrambled about 1800 eggs, brewed and served about 900 cups of coffee, 700 slices toast served.
