I want to thank everyone who came to and/or supported our Eclectablog/The GOTMFV Show fundraiser at the Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales + Kitchen. The change in venue was a smashing success with great food and drink in a warm & friendly environment. Chef/manager Maggie Long and her staff were gracious and accommodating and we will DEFINITELY be back next year.

I'd like to thank Leslie Sobel & Bill Worzel for cheerfully staffing the check-in table, filling in at the last minute when we had nobody else to do it.

Huge thanks and shout-out to Brian Greminger for providing sound and for recording the podcast for us.

Extra special thanks to our guest Anat Shenker-Osorio (go subscribe to the Brave New Words Pod now!) Her presentation and the interview for the pod were incredibly informative and I know we all left a little bit smarter because of her.

Thanks to my wife Anne Savage for putting up with the hassle this always involves, for baking chocolate chip cookies (with a strong assist from my daughter, Arleigh), and for all she does and did to make the fundraiser as successful as possible.

Here are some images from the event taken by Anne:
