Yesterday's Event

Yesterday, Carolyn and I set up a table to sell the Winton Historical Society's new recipe book and souvenir mugs. It was at the VFW Hall in Winton.
Instead of paying for the table space, each vendor was required to bring a snack for the sellers and buyers to munch on through out the day. We had chips and dips, fresh veggies and all kinds of sweet treats, including chocolate Easter eggs.
Another requirement was that each vendor had to donate a raffle prize. The Winton Historical Society donated a Winton Centennial recipe book.
Rosalie came by and sat with us for a while. Later our friend Leona came and sat and visited. We enjoyed talking with the people who came by our table, a few made purchases, but because there was so much going on yesterday, the traffic was very light at the VFW Hall. Sharon told us we should have been at the car show in Winton. Lots of people there.
Well, who knew?
The next events coming up is Saturday, May 7. The Winton Water and Sewer District is sponsoring a Block Party in downtown Winton,from 1 to 6 p.m. Ida Mae and Marilyn will set up a table to sell the Winton Centennial recipe books. ($15.00 each)
That same day, Carolyn and I will be at the Castle Vista Craft Bazaar from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. with the recipe books and the souvenir mugs. I will also have the "Memories of Winton, 1911-1950" book available for $35.00. Castle Vista, a gated community will have their gates open that day. They are located off of Juniper Avenue between Shaffer and Buhach. The bazaar will be held in their club house at 2300 Cascade Drive. If you don't already have your recipe book and souvenir mug, come by and see us. They make wonderful gifts. May 8 is Mother's Day.
