St. Dennis Festival 2011
A HUGE FESTIVAL THANK YOU
The 2011 Festival Committee would like to express a big THANK YOU to all who helped at this year's Festival. So many gave so much of their time to help make the Festival run smoothly, those who gave generous donations, set up and take down crews, volunteers during the Festival, Boy Scouts, and event chairpersons. We would like to also thank Sue Besler and Scott Theis, our maintenance staff, who did an excellent job of assisting us throughout the weekend, and especially Fr. Schmitt for his support.
Without everyone's hard work and effort, and God leading us, this Festival would not be the great success that it has become.
Again, thank you to each and every person who helped along in this wonderful journey. We look forward to working with everyone next year!
