Thank you to everyone who helped out on Family Day 2011!

 

The community turned out in huge numbers for our annual celebration!   71 pies eaten, 36 hula hoops swirled, dozens of Radburn Idols debuted, many jousters dunked, hundreds of snow cones, scads of cotton candies, 240 burgers flipped, 300 hot dogs grilled, and thousands of smiles!
