THANK YOU
TO ALL THE SPONSORS OF THE OMRO AREA NEWSLETTER
Continued from front page~
This year’s Pork and Rhubarb Fest will be different from years past. We found that many of
the rummage sales in the area are selling hamburgers and hot dogs and the vendor fair has
food booths, all of which effect the number of people who attend the luncheon at the center.
We have decided to take a year off from doing the luncheon and concentrate on the pie sales.
Let us know if you want the luncheon back next year!
Pie making will be on May 27th beginning at 8:00 AM. Many of our volunteers from past
years are retiring or busy with other events. We thank them for all of their years of service to
the center! However this means that we are in need of new volunteers for this effort. We usu-
ally finish up around 12:30 and then the center treats everyone to lunch. If you can help with
this endeavor, please give us a call!
We make two kinds of rhubarb pie, two crust or crumb crust. The pies sell for $10 each and
all proceeds go to the operation of the center. Pies will be for sale beginning Friday afternoon
about 3:00 PM and will also be available on Saturday from 10:00 until 1:00 (or until sold out).
We are also going to have them available at the Pig in Omro as we tried that last year and
some people were pleased because they didn’t make it to the center to get a pie. Pies will be
available at the Pig Friday afternoon and Saturday as well. Please help support the Commu-
nity Center and enjoy our delicious pies.
Since we will be making pies, we are again looking for rhubarb donations from many of the
fine folks of Omro. If you are willing to donate some of your rhubarb crop to this great en-
deavor, please give us a call at the center. We will never take it all, we try to take only 1/3 un-
less you specify otherwise.
Obviously, we could not do this fundraiser without the help of many special people. We truly
thank everyone who helps us make this event so successful. This allows us to keep our center
doors open and provides needed space for many groups to meet, exercise classes to be held and
attended and all ages of community members to be served by the programs and events held
here.
Thanks to all who help, donate, purchase and support the Omro Area Community Center!
