Harvest Dinner and Fundraiser Helps Bicentennial Project
The November 9, 2013 Darrtown Bicentennial “Harvest Dinner and Fundraiser” was another successful step toward financing the Darrtown Bicentennial. Nearly 270 people gathered at the Milford Township Community Center, in Collinsville, Ohio, to enjoy food prepared by Charlie Kennel and socialize with old and new friends. In the near future, photos from this event will be posted in the Events section of the Darrtown website. Organizers of this fundraiser greatly appreciate the support of all who attended.
The members of the Darrtown Bicentennial Steering Committee wish to express appreciation to all who attended the dinner-fundraiser and to all the volunteers who helped made the evening possible. Steering committee members include Dale Bufler, Betty Daniels, Jack Daniels, Paul Gillespie, Fred Lindley, Joe Pater, and Ron Wiley.

Before the serving line started, Steering Committee members Fred Lindley and Ron Wiley stepped up to the plate (pun intended) and sampled the dessert -
just to be certain that the customers would be satisfied.

The two lifelong friends suggested that this activity would enable them to list "Dessert Taster" on their resumes, which might lead to part-time employment.
