Huge turnout, great fun at Madison County SpringFest
Almost 100 KFTC members and friends turned out on a rainy Saturday for the Madison County SpringFest.
The event start off with a reading of the brand new book "Something's Rising: Applachians Fighting Mountaintop Removal" from authors Silas House and Jason Howard.
Folks also enjoyed a delicious potluck dinner that featured locally raised meat and music from loved local band Mudpi.
A friendly Derby pool and silent auction helped raise fun – and funds -- for KFTC.
"I enjoy having the chance to socialize with members and prospective members in a party atmosphere where there is a minimum of business to discuss. I think that kind of outreach is as important as all the tabling, phone banking and chapter and committee meetings that we members do throughout the year." -- Toby Wilcher, Berea.
The event was a great celebration of the strength and work of the nearly 500-member strong Madison County chapter. Thanks to all who volunteered and helped make the event a success!
