Blueberry Festival
Thank You to all who helped make our participation in Cloverdale’s recent Blueberry Festival so successful.
We used over 150 lbs of donated blueberries
and made about 135 pies!
Our delicious pies were a huge hit with the festival crowd again this year, and helped raise $1,837 for the church.
It takes many hands to host a successful event, and once again, our church community stepped up to take part in this wonderful experience.
Special thanks to May Taylor for coordinating this year’s event.
