By the way, I have not yet had time to touch up any of the photos so if there are any blurry or sideways ones, I apologize! Hopefully I will have some videos for you soon. If any of you have photos you'd like to submit, please feel free to send them to us. The same goes for anyone who'd like to make any comments about their experiences at this year's feast. It was a great success.

(focusing on Day 2)
- Thank you to all who performed at the talent show, including
Eric King's Art In Motion Karate of Vineland (photo right), Jim Wilson, our parish music director who organized the talent and music (above), and all the participants.
- A special thank you is in order for Joe Posiadlo for his construction of an amazing and beautiful bier for Our Lady (see photo below). We're sure it will be used for many years to come.
While we're at it with the thank yous, we should make sure we thank both of Sunday's bands, Mr. Tujays (right and above) and Jukebox Review. Both were excellent and so much fun, too. Thanks to Mr. Tujays for donating your time and talent to the church. We were so impressed with both bands--please make sure you catch them if you can! Both of these great classic rock/oldies bands are those of members of our parish, Jim Wilson and Kevin Kelton.
A big, gigantic thank you to Ollie and Corie from Plagido's Winery, Hammonton (right). We cannot begin to express all the complimentary feedback we received about your wines and sangria. In the words of one of our parishioners, "Now I know where I'm going to get my Christmas wine." Me too! (And Halloween wine, and Thanksgiving wine, and Easter wine, etc.) Please be sure and patronize this wonderful winery, open 7 days a week and owned by two of the very nicest people you'd ever want to meet. (Be sure to try the "Plagido's Choice.")
- We would be remiss if we
neglected to mention all the many people who gave of their time and talents to make this weekend possible, from planning to making phone calls to soliciting donations to stapling adbooks to setting up tables to answering the phones during and leading up to the feast to manning the booths to dressing up as a clown (???)...you name it. We are sure we'll forget someone in this list, but thank you to Dee Posiadlo, Kathie Ramos, JV (right), Tim Trace, Diane Trace, Bill DiMatteo, Mike and Danny Vassallo, Nancy Pantaleo, and most of all to the wonderful, talented, and unassuming Leah Vassallo. Leah, you are awesome. (Leah you can stop blushing and look at the pictures now.) Thank you to EVERYONE who worked so hard for Our Lady and for our parish. Please forgive me if I have forgotten you, my mind is like a sieve 
sometimes.
