Here is a bunch of KBPRC faithful. Along with the Information Booth, we had the company of the Lion's Club, and the Census 2010. Everyone had fun!


The Lions Club raffle for a barbecue went real well. Everyone had fun selling tickets and the winning one went to a very hard working member of the Leo's Club.


Volunteer work can make you hungry!! These two guys stayed most of the day.

KUNA "RAIN" DAYS !!

The KBPRC was at the Kuna Days Information Booth again this year, handing out information and helping out where they could. We met some great people and made some new friends along the way. All in all it was a pretty good outing - minus the rain.

The Kuna Days celebration got off to a soggy start on Friday the 7th. Kuna received low 50 degree temperatures and a down pour of 1.7 inches of rain fall in a matter of two days, thoroughly testing the wills of the volunteers and participants. After a lull in the weather, a fantastic fireworks display was put on for all of the people who braved the unusual climate conditions. You can't stop Lloyd Stubbs and his pyro-tech crew from putting on a good show!
Since it "never rains" during Kuna Days, the weather brought some unplanned conditions along with it. MUD, lots of mud. You could tube the show, or wade to your favorite vendor treat in the concession area. Finally, after some phone calls and help from our reliable friend and sponsor Dustin Ferdinand of Ridge Line Construction, Dustin quickly came to the aid of Kuna Days and brought in 12 yards of bark to control the muddy conditions. After spreading it with his skid steer, a lot of the vendors were happy to have their patrons back! We all owe Dustin a big thank you!
