  • The generous food and balloon donors. And those who made a cash donation in lieu of shopping. A serious help and definite ingredients to the days’ success!
  • The Richards family for the hot dogs from their amazing grass-fed beef company. Delish!
  • The Fun & Games Experts - Seriously, ask your Senior if they had fun. This company and the people they employ are the bomb!
  • The Campo janitorial staff for all the cart trips, garbage cans, parking cones and unlocking of various facilities throughout the day!
  • Bill Chapman (of Fathers on Fyre) for supplying and managing the sound system for both events. Amazing vibes!
  • Campo Principal John Walker and the amazing Campo AP’s who spent a big chunk of their Sunday to help make the event a success (and made sure we didn’t ruin the place).
