Thank you, too, to the faithful organizers, to students, and to all the other volunteers. You made a great team. Some of these students pitched in with a will all week, and others brought friends Saturday to help with the huge clean-up, done in record time: Elliott Antonacci, Josh Ballard, Chris Charitou, Michelle Ballard, Daniel Devine, Alysha Dupuis, Rachel Fortnum, Brandon Lewis, Michael Milton, Mac Milton and Tory Pearson; and Amelia Fortnum and Mallory Milton helped in toy sales. They all set a great example. Tickets ($30) are on sale now for the annual Women's Dinner May 10, with Ed Millar's imaginative dessert to follow.
