The many friends, family, organizations and complete strangers who helped us after the June 17th tornado. Whether you provide help with the clean-up process, food, supplies or a kind word shared, ti was all greatly appreciated. We would also like to thank the Manchester Fire Department, American Red Cross, Salvation Army, Agstar, Pride Builders, West Freeborn Lutheran Church, and the Wessling Church Group. Without all of your help this would truly have been a monumental task. We are truly blessed by the support of this community.

There will be two grilling classes offered, each with different recipes.

Each class is $18.00 per person, you can sign up for one or both – again, no recipe will be repeated between the two classes.
