To the Journal editor:

The Annual Harvest Dinner at the Big Bay Community Presbyterian Church was again a great success. This was our 70th year! We served about 200 guests and everyone who came had plenty to eat and good company to share it with.

The amount of time and effort that the volunteers give is always amazing to see. This year there were 47 volunteers who helped to make this dinner a success. They cut, peeled, sliced and diced, set tables, cooked, carved, baked pies, greeted and seated people, entertained, donated items or donated money.

A big thank you goes out to all of them. I would especially like to thank the church Deacons without which this dinner would not happen.

All of you who came to eat and enjoy the fellowship of our annual turkey dinner are the biggest part of our success. We couldn’t do it without you. Thanks for coming.
