Thanks to everyone who brought all those delicious dishes to share!
Thanks to the 2 Steves, Mulligan & Carnes for helping Woz grill!
Thanks to all who helped setup and tear down!
Special thanks to Mary Gordon and Linda Wozniak for serving on the Picnic Committee, bringing everything needed for setups, from tables to cookware, utensils, etc., buying miscellaneous items, and all the hours of planning and work putting this together!
Everyone had the opportunity to take home what food was not eaten and any other food items left were donated to the West Manatee Fire & Rescue Department, along with Woz & Linda's 2 grills and a bin full of charcoal. Next year no grilling!
