North Carolina RC&D Association Supports 2009 Canon Envirothon
The North Carolina RC&D Association's hosting of the NORTH CAROLINA NIGHT dinner and entertainment for the 2009 Canon Envirothon was a great success!
Held at the Haywood County Fairgrounds on August 5th, over 40 volunteers, including RC&D Council Members, RC&D Staff, SWCD Staff, SWCD Supervisors, NCDSWC Staff, and others planned, cooked, set-up, served, danced, and cleaned up.
We had over 17 sponsors of cash, food product, and services who helped make this event special for the over 600 students, advisors, volunteers, and cooperating agency staff. Attached are a few prictures taken that evening.
The group was welcomed by Congressmen Heath Shuler and entertained by Balsam Range (BR currently has number one bluegrass song in US) and local Cloggers. The kids and the older kids had the largest square dance you ever saw. And if the buses hadn't begun to leave at 8 PM those kids and the cloggers would still be dancing.
