Pumpkin Festival 2022 - Rotary Club of HMB Chowder Booth
 
 
Happy Post Pumpkin Festival! 
 
 
Now that the dust has begun to settle, I wanted to congratulate everyone and say thank you to all for supporting our Chowder booth!  By supporting, I mean, working your @#$%& off to help raise funds for our club! As per Steve and Mary, our gross income at this point is: $23,622!
 
That's absolutely INCREDIBLE!
 
Of course, we still need to deduct our expenses, which will come in around $4000, but even after that, WE MADE A TON OF MONEY!
 
We couldn't have done this without EACH and EVERY one of you who worked tirelessly to order, organize, plan, take delivery, cut, prep, cook and serve the milieu of people who bought our clam chowder.
 
As always, we've come away with several suggestions for next time, including more double boilers and more tabasco/tapatio sauce. If you have a suggestion, please feel free to send to me. That way I can compile to keep for future reference.
 
In the meantime, please enjoy this glorious morning and bask in our success, which is completely due to THE BEST ROTARY CLUB IN THE WORLD!
 
PP/PE Liz Schuck
 
PS per President Krystlyn, we'll have a mini celebration at Thursday's meeting!
