The Elwood Spring Gala is possible thanks to the huge amount of help from volunteers throughout the year.
Volunteers are the backbone of this event. From the planning process, procuring donations, to decorating and bar set-up, working the event, clean-up, and all the other things I am forgetting - everyone involved holds a special role.
Thank you to each and every one of you!
I don't have a picture with all the Gala volunteers, but here is a small group of helpers from Saturday night. I know most of the guys were very busy working at the Marble Race and bar area, thanks guys for making that sacrifice!

There are so many people who deserve a huge "Thank You" for helping with the Elwood Spring Gala!
First up is Terry Galloway, Announcer Extraordinaire.
Terry was willing to take on the announcer job with very little advance notice, and he did amazing! It's a big responsibility to keep the event moving forward on time while also engaging the audience.
Terry, thank you for being willing to take on this job at the last minute and for working hard all night to keep things rolling! We appreciate you!

Elwood FFA students served the meal at the Elwood Spring Gala. We didn’t get a picture this year but they looked so professional, were polite and friendly, worked their tails off and did a great job. Thank you students, for volunteering your time on a Saturday evening, and thank you Ms. Louthan for coordinating the serving and for all the work you put into our FFA program!
