It could not be done if it were not for the many scores of volunteers, whether it be students, family members, friends or civic groups and clubs.
We always learn how to improve the next show from the last. This year was my second year as a volunteer and my job was the gates.
Yes, we were understaffed in collecting the gate fees. But when dealing with money, it has to be a little bit more controlled. We have learned how we can improve for next year. The kids who were there to help out this year were great for spending their day assisting. The businesses that sponsored such a wonderful event, so that we can learn and respect those who served for all of us, the board members and organizers should all be proud.
