Town Talk II
It got hot in the park Saturday afternoon at the end of the Cheeseburger Festival. Actually it was not so bad for most of the day, windy and even a little chilly when we set up the Noon Lions booth Saturday morning. The Lions sold fries and the Farwell cheerleaders sold their homemade ice cream again. I had two people tell me they liked to dip their fries in ice cream. First time I had heard that.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by for the Lions Club fries. We sold all 400 pounds of fries by 1:30 p.m. This is a fundraiser for the club to use to support local activities and scholarships.
