Cooking of the fish was done by Cappie Tom and Robert Pepin as always, they kept the line going nice and steady manning those fryers! Auxiliary Member Kimberly Jepsen Pepin manned the admission table!
Legion Members Ron Gruber, Keith Brittain, Gene Huddleston, Jim Rohret and Chuck Avey served, ran fish from fryers to the serving line, delivering orders to the homebound, setup and tear down/cleanup.
Finally we wish to thank West Central Valley Scout Troop 167 for their help setting up, serving, assisting attendees, and tear down! Like Cappy and Bob our Community Scouts are a staple for every Fish Fry and we appreciate their help!
