We did it! Thanks to sales on the last couple of days and some generous donors, we reached the $30,000 sales target, earning 40% of our sales. The goal in the 2023 budget was to earn $8,000. After expenses, if they are all accounted for, we earned $9,093.
Thank you to everyone who unloaded the semi truck, moved pallets, moved pumpkins, cleaned up the lawn, worked The Patch, bought pumpkins, and made financial donations! The Pumpkin Patch is truly a church-wide event. There were a number of super volunteers who worked many extra hours, ensuring The Patch was open all hours as advertised. And a special thank you to Diane Bartley, our Pumpkin Queen, who organized everything from delivery to the ins and outs of daily operations.
