Previous BB Kim Clement and Present BB Maurina gave a short presentation on the Hill Cumorah and Wayne county fair projects. Maurina thanked all the volunteers for their hours of work and noted that it rained 5 out of the 6 days this year. Profits were down a little from the projected $5,000. ($4,852) Maurina also noted that expenses were down helping the bottom line.
Kim presented a check for $7,500 from Hill Cumorah proceeds. This was about even with last year. She then quizzed members about the amount of different products sold at the concession(multiple choice to make it easier). Not-yet-member Colin won by getting 4 out of 5 answers correctly. The prize was a homegrown spaghetti squash from the Clement garden. FYI RL Concessions sold 2,360 burgers, 1.480 hots, 1,080 sausages,2,980 chicken dinners and 74 tubs of ice cream. No pictures taken so you get clip art!
