2013 Garden Gourmands was a great success!
Posted May 20, 2013
The rain held off, the food was amazing, and the volunteers were outstanding. A big thank you from the cats and kittens to all the volunteers who gave up their weekend to help us make this the successful event that it was! You are the reason we can continue to save cats who have no other options.
These special people include: Chelsea Bane; Janet, Sophia & Dan Bogan; Abby & Tom Byland; Cornelia Capell; Karla Capell; Susan Clayton; Mary Ruth Coleman; Joan Danaher; Myra Ezell; Debra Fincher; Laura Gaffney; Diana Haywood; Mariska Leunissen; Rita Mannella; Terry Melville; Robert Moore; Tarrl Morley; Marilyn Penrod; Lorraine Rizzon; and Carol Wilson.
Massimo was on the scene to welcome our guests.
And a very special thanks to local business sponsors who donated facilities, talent, flowers, wine and groceries – all of which ensured that the 2013 Garden Gourmands event was a success! We could not have done it without them! Please patronize these local businesses and recognize their support for our sanctuary.
