Fall Social and Wildlife Photo Exhibit

by Georgia Kestol-Bauer

I want to thank all those who were able to attend the fall social and wildlife photo exhibit at the church on October 9th. As it turned out, that Sunday afternoon was a beautiful Wisconsin fall day. The temperatures were moderate, the afternoon was sunny, and the fall colors at the church and East Richmond Cemetery were on full display.

If you were unable to attend the fall social and might be interested in the photos or note cards, click on the link below to see the photo gallery. High quality prints are available at very reasonable prices for those who might want to purchase. Take me to the photo gallery.

About sixty people attended the fall social event, and between donations, card sales, and photography print sales, we raised $988.00 for the church restoration fund. Thanks to you all. That amount of money helped finish the projects described in the project report.

I want to thank those who helped make the event on October 9th a success.
