Thanks to everyone who helped us raise almost $4300.

This was Buddy’s first year at the Marketplace; he’s a friendlier size than his predecessor, Frisky.

Special thanks to Earl Phillips and the Eureka Grange for the use of their tent; to Albreada Refuse and Sweeping for their donation of the dumpster for the week; to Pastor Wes and the Bakerville Methodist Church for the use of their building and tables; and to Electric Motion for the use of their tables.

Thanks to all our volunteers, who set up, cleaned up, sat in the sun, smiled, hauled boxes and tables and tents, sweated, baked, put up posters and signs, posted on Facebook, counted money, sold tickets, mowed, made phone calls, kept track, and kept smiling.
