Recovery Celebration Highlights

Recovery Celebration

The Recovery Celebration at Camp Harkness was a huge success. The weather was beautiful and over 300 people attended.

The food was delicious and plentiful and the music was "pumping." After lunch many talented people volunteered to participate in our talent "gongless" show where our panel of judges rated each act by holding up a numbered paddle ranging from a high score of 5 to a low score of 1.

This years Gong Show winner received a COACH bag. Other participants were given an option to select from a table full of prized donated by area businesses.

If you have pictures or comments about the Celebration, please email them to us and we will post them here on our website.
