In last week’s paper, there was an article on the First Annual Aaron Tate BBQ Bash. In that story was a listing of the BBQ cooking teams that participated in the event. The team of Mark Galan and Debbie Gill should have been included in that list. The Vocational Agriculture Association thanks Mark and Debbie for their participation and apologizes for the oversight.
