Highlights from 2007 Events
Saturday, May 12, 2007: Kibbles & Skits; 6-9PM at the Surf Club
The Surf Club and the Enos family provided an evening of great food and fabulous talent. Always a night of fun and ably directed by Kathy Clobridge, our spirited acts included: the Phur Mytes, John Fitch, Marcia Mello, Gwen Kaslouskas-Noyes, Matt Page, Aryna Fulcher, Sheldon Schwartz, June Somers, Susan Mitchell, Chev Hardy, Judy Linen, Jim Parker as Mama CASAS, and of course, Carol MacDonald and Marsha Sirota. Lady Di was our wonderful emcee and our judges, Char Priolo, Dixie Federico, and Jan Kelly, were fair and honest in all their determinations. "Best in Show" went to Judy Linen for her Balance Board act. Thanks to your generosity, the evening raised about $3,000 for the Shelter, an increase of $700 from last year!
