Woody Gutherie Benefit Concert Is A Success.

Thanks to the wonderful local musicians who donated their time and talents and to a generous audience, the Woody Gutherie 100th Birthday Celebration and Benefit Concert was a huge success.

We raised nearly $4000 for Hunger Ministries at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral and had a great time in the process.

We really couldn't have picked a better day. It's raining today in Portland but yesterday for the concert the weather was absolutely perfect.

I also want to thank the volunteers who worked to help set up the venue, sell posters and serve food to the crowd. We couldn't have done it without you!

Artist Gary Houston donated his services and created this poster just for the event.

Homemade cookies for the crowd. Clockwise from top left: Rice Crispie Treat, Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip, Pioneer Date Bar, Oatmeal Raisin, Brownie, Chocolate Chip, Chewy Coconut Cranberry and Chewy Ginger Cookie. We also had gluten free chocolate chip cookies and brownies available.
Flag toothpicks are a nice addition. My daughter found them for a bargain at the local Cash 'n' Carry store. A box of 144 toothpicks for .78 cents!
