Every year, a popular auction item, the "Progressive Dinner on the San Bernard” is offered at the annual fundraiser. It features a fabulous four-course dinner for guests served at different riverfront homes. This year it was a beautiful calm October evening as the water taxi taking the dinner guests to the specially prepared meal cruised the San Bernard River
