The Apalachicola Volunteer Fire Department Auxiliary Board Members: Marisa Getter, Shelley Shepard, Joe Taylor, Meghan Davis, Palmer Philyaw, Betty Webb and Carrie Jones would like to express their sincere appreciation and give thanks to everyone that came out for the 4th Annual Oyster Cook-Off held January 17-18, 2014.
The success of the annual event would not have been possible without ALL the patrons, volunteers, sponsors and donors. While it's hard to list everyone, the Auxiliary Board would like to mention those wonderful sponsors and amazing supporters who they know efforts helped to make the event possible.
The Auxiliary Board express their heartfelt appreciation to the members of the Apalachicola Volunteer Fire Department who cooked tons of wonderful food and did an awesome dance, led by Pam Nobles and her dancers. They also send thanks to Sam and Dan Fortunas and their helpers for leading the 1st Annual 3000 Fathom Half Shell Hustle Fun Run and a BIG thanks to Water Street Seafood, Amison Seafood and Buddy Ward & Sons Seafood - their oysters and shrimp were definitely the main attraction. The Piggly Wiggly and Danny Itzkovitz were more than helpful in meeting the demands for supplies.
Lastly, to the fifty-plus volunteers who unselfishly dedicated many hours to the Apalachicola Volunteer Fire Department, your efforts were key in helping to meet the yearly goal of paying the ENTIRE fire truck payment for 2014.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!
