The party was a huge success. Not sure how many people in total came through the doors but for a while, it was hard to get from one end of the room to another. We drained the first keg in about 90 minutes. Many great door prizes were given away all donated by friends and sponsors, (Feathered Friends, Tully’s-Gregg Ferguson, and SunDog). Len and company put on a hilarious skit with some great air guitar and air bagpipes. And then at 10 pm right on schedule, we had some live music from Seth on the sax and Duncan on the guitar. Shirt sales were on fire with us nearly selling out. Do not fear if you did not get one we will be ordering more shortly. Cash donations were extremely generous! Thank you very much!A very big thanks to all who came and shared a bit with us. I personally had a great time and enjoyed seeing many people I haven’t seen in a while as well as the regulars. Special thanks to all those people who helped organize, set up, and run the event! As Len demonstrated in the skit we climbers didn’t have the time or focus to put together such a great party.
