Following our initial success with the RCNS Take a Bite Out of Norfolk (TaBooN), we were encouraged to take a 'second bite'; so, we took on a Fall '21 edition of this popular community support event. We kept the original aim to organize a fundraiser that promoted our County and offered a wide and interesting selection of Norfolk food and products.
Following a dreary start to the distribution day, the sun came out for our sunrise club (apropos) and we all enjoyed a great, covid-friendly, drive-thru morning. In the end, we sold 147 product packages; each stuffed with 14 different items from our County. What a wonderful way to partner with our local Norfolk businesses to showcase our bountiful County and raise funds to put back into the same community. 
We could not have done this as well as we did without a great facility to carry it out so we (once again) offer a huge thankyou to Kristine Carey and Venture Norfolk. Congratulations to our RCNS organizing committee - Gail Catherwood, Gail Bouw, Mary Mercato, Cathy Harrop, Joanne Kiefer and our Club Pres Louise Schebesch. They want everyone to know that all of this was done without shovels - 😂inside club joke! 
Go to the 'Read more ...' tab to have a look at several added pictures from the day as well as to see a listing of those Norfolk businesses who contributed so significantly to the product bags. We thank you all.
