It seems that no matter what day we
choose for our Strawberry Social, chances are it will rain. Does that
sound familiar to anyone? Sometimes even if it isn't raining the
grounds are so saturated that we have mud ruts everywhere. Other times
we have moved the date only to get rain again. Sigh! One glorious
year it poured then the sun came out an hour before our event.
Hurrah!
Even though the national weather person
predicted drought this year we have had lots of rain this June. It is
necessary to always have a Plan B. One year we moved our event to the
Legion, too small a space.
This year we set up the canopies on
June 22. Our summer exhibit on softball in Cupar was set to go and
then we waited to see. We continued to wait the morning of June 23
to see what the weather would do. Our event is scheduled to start at
2:00pm and at 12:30 the call or calls were made. Messages went out on
social media and posters downtown quickly changed.
We moved to the recently renovated Town
Hall. The band Blue Country was able to spread out nicely and they
commented on how good the acoustics were. Our crowd of about 60
people may have been smaller than other years, but of course the
weather is mainly to blame. Everyone had a great time, but of course
we would have preferred to be outside in the warmth and sun. Sigh!
Maybe next year.
