We would like to thank several folks that helped make our chicken dinner fundraiser a huge success: Tyson Cook Team, The Ladies of RSVP, Museum board members and volunteers that gave their day, and finally all of you that purchased dinners. We cannot do fundraisers without all of these fine people!
