S.O.N.S. ICE OUT PARTY APRIL 10, 2011

Sixty two volunteers that included our officers, directors, members and family members pulled together to produce one of our best Ice Out Parties to date. We had to overcome the logistics of a new venue for the party. Our kitchen staff served over 1200 hot dogs along with gallons of Greek Sauce, 600 bags of Chips and pretzels,  20 lbs of onions and sauerkraut. Our beverage servers dispensed gallons and gallons of beer and soft drinks. Our stage crew gave away hundreds of door prizes. Our tip sellers sold tip boards on merchandise and money for four hours straight. The Big Six wheel turned nearly continuously while others sold Chinese Auction Raffle tickets and Instant Bingos.

 

The generosity of our door prize donors and suppliers all contributed to our success. For this we offer our sincere gratitude to Smith Provision Co., Stroehman Bakeries, Erie Beer Co., Marusso Paper Co., Erie Waterworks, Erie Sport Store, Presque Isle Bait and Tackle, BAC Bait and Tackle, Poor Richard’s Bait and Tackle, Gander Mountain Sporting Goods, PFBC, Presque Isle Auto, Dave Hallman Chevrolet, Hallman Hyndai, Tires For Less, Westmoreland Supply, Eco Turf, Troyer Farms, East End Angler O Danny O Perch Head Boat, District Attorny Jack Danieri, Erie Bearings Inc. and Fish USA. We also would like to thank our Fin and Fur Sponsors- Alex Motor Sports, Capt. PJ Woznicki, Captain Dick Torelli, Edward John Head Boat, Poor Richard’s Bait and Tackle, Janitor’s Supply, Church and Murdock Electric Co., Winschel Bros. Landscaping, Fish USA, Lake Shore Towing and Hertel and Brown Physical Therapy.

 

We also wish to thank Kathy Klapthor for preparing the Greek Sauce and DJ John for supplying the Sound Equipment and the 62 members who worked so hard.

 

We also would like to thank our members who attended all of the shows at the convention center and gun shows and sold thousands of dollars worth of raffle tickets for our “Fin and Fur Raffle” which was held at the Ice Out Party.
