Dessert Auction: Per Barb, three more dessert items are needed for the expected 12 tables. Consider providing that special dessert (purchase or bake yourself) that will have donations “flying off the table” for that first dessert pick. Very exciting!
Parks Dept. Presentation Discussion: Per Scott, numerous KP Parks sponsorship opportunities exist ranging from single donations to ongoing commitments.
