FAITH FEST
 Families And Individuals Together in Highland
Fri. night & Sat. ~ June 19 & 20
Held at the Highland Village Park, 755 Park St., Highland

Thank You
We would like to thank the FAITH Fest Chairpersons for all the time spent organizing and working at FAITH Fest last weekend: Amy Bomkamp, Delores Eggers, Ginger Halverson, Linda Hebgen, Holly Laufenberg, Al McCarthy, Steve & Joan McGuire, Kim Mensch, Doug Oleson, Sharon Olson, Laurie Pustina, Tom & Lisa Riley & Beth Skala. We were a little apprehensive about the weather on Friday night when FAITH Fest began but managed to get in one game of kickball and one game of baseball before more rain fell. Saturday, we were blessed with super weather! Thirty-five “walkers” joined us for the Walk/Run. There were lots of ballgames that involved young people and their families. Delicious food was served from the concession stand all weekend long. The kid’s games were really fun – did you check out the kid’s tractor pull that was new this year? We served around 50 meals in the church lower level at 5:30 p.m. The workers, the crowd and music were delightful.

 Thank you everyone for your donations of brownies, soda, bottled water, hamburger and ice cream. Workers, we thank you for giving of your time during the weekend. We appreciate the families that called or emailed to let us know that they could not work their assignment – they didn’t want to be a “no show”. 

We sold 1117 raffle tickets – thanks to our parishioners who purchase the large percentage of the raffle tickets. Thank you to the many people who gave monetary donations to the FAITH Fest event - all proceeds from this event go toward the Religious Education program here at the parish. Also, thank you to the National Catholic Society of Foresters for co-sponsoring this event with matching funds up to $500.
