As my first year as the local coordinator winds down, I would like to say thank you for making it a very enjoyable experience for me. The members of LIMRS and I had a wonderful time working on this! We had originally thought we would only do this for one year, but it’s been so much fun that we’ve decided to keep right on working on this great community building event.
And building community is what it’s all about. There was a great turnout this year and even a little rain couldn’t dampen anyone spirits because we were having such a good time just being together! Our speakers, Aislinn Firehawk and Phyllis “Playful Autumn Wind” Cronbaugh, were entertaining and inspiring. KC Drum Tribe got us out of our seats and dancing. J and Cathy taught us some great rhythms. Etoile Flemons and Lanell had the crowd spellbound as they danced and continued the feeling as they taught us some of their moves. The musical magic of Celtic Moon was the perfect close to great day.
We had our little failures, but the huge successes overshadowed them. Every item in the silent auction found a new home. The Embellished Body booth was a hit again this year and Sheryl was very busy all day making everyone beautiful.
We were able to raise a total of $800.00 for The Pagan Pantry!!
Thank you to everyone who gave so generously! Whether it was at the pancake breakfast, the silent auction, or at The Embellished Body, your help and generosity made the day a success. A huge round of applause to our wonderful sponsors as well, who made the event possible in the first place. Please visit our sponsorship page and utilize their services since they are all a great asset to our community.
Thank you again for coming out and joining together to make this year’s event a great success.
