RC Bluegrass Richmond Wins Second Place in Pops in the Park Table Decoration Theme

By: Darlene G. Snyder

Realizing the importance of being involved in our community, we chose the annual "Pops in the Park" as our summer outing. With the mansion at White Hall as our backdrop and the overall theme of the night being The Yellow Brick Road, we chose as our table theme, Toto's Birthday Party.  We decorated our table in birthday balloons and tablecloth, added matching napkins and seated Toto's doggy friends in all the chairs. All of our finger foods were made with the pups in mind.  As the judges arrived at our table, we uncovered the doggy-bone shaped birthday cake made by Meijer, and began singing Happy Birthday to Toto.  The judges really liked it and awarded our group with second place for theme. Toto was 73 years old this year. Our group enjoyed the evening visiting with one another, listening to EKU's Orchestra, and greeting friends.
