2009 Herndon Festival Booth and Children’s Hands on Art  is a Big Success

The Council for the Arts of Herndon Board of Directors would like to thank all of our volunteers, the Herndon Festival organizing committee, and our faithful customers for another successful Herndon Festival fund raiser. We could not have done it without our wonderful volunteers who worked tirelessly to man the taps and serve food. JJ Deli provided their 'Best of DC' pulled pork and brisket sandwiches again this year. Special thanks goes once again to Jan and all the other stalwart volunteers who return year after year for multiple shifts.  To all of the volunteers who helped make it a fun filled four days, please know that the 2009 festival beer booth would not have been a success without you. The Children's Hands on Art was once again free to the public and there were many smiling children. Special thanks to Kathy and Grace.
