 "It was worth the wait!" After two postponements for river and/or weather conditions, those were the sentiments of, left, George and Trish Franklin, Carol McKinney, Vicki Melass, Spike McKinney and Corky Melass as they enjoyed the Sweeny side Progressive Dinner aboard Wana and Russell York's party barge water taxi.

A popular auction item at the FOR SB fundraiser held annually in October is the “Progressive Dinner on the San Bernard” where three couples are treated to a four-course meal at four different homes located along the river. Besides the wonderful food and libations, served by great hosts, it includes a scenic river trip as they are delivered to the different houses by water taxi.
Hosts Sherrie and Tom Folger, Barb and Mike Pudlo, and Vanessa and Nelson Taylor shared their homes and three fantastic spreads of appetizers, soup and salad, and snapper with sides. As a finale to the dinner, a flaming dessert was served aboard the party barge by Ange and Tom Ronayne.
Thanks again to the hosts and all their helpers (John and Jane Wallace, Gera Martin, Tarryn Eddy, Vicki and Wayne Head, and Folger’s friend Sissy) for a job well done, and thanks to the guests for their support of Friends of the River.
