Fundraising Event

This year, one of our good friends, Fay, decided to coordinate a fundraising event to raise money for the Rio Vista Center. We usually have a get together when our friend, Eppie, visits from Hong Kong and she will cook us a great meal. Fay took advantage of this and coordinated a wonderful event featuring Eppie's cooking. Our moms and a few of us also helped and the food was delicious. The menu featured Chinese dishes from different regions of China. There was also a silent auction and a kids activity area, so everyone got to enjoy the evening. We ended up with about 60 people (kids included) and raised about $1100 for the Rio Vista Center. We were able to use the Fellowship Hall of the Foothils Baptist Church and it was a beautiful facility. There was a full size kitchen there and it was fun cooking there. Overall, the event was a great success and we all had a great time.
