The 7th annual Birthday Bash at the White Hall Community Center was successful. Thanks to all the people who took time to come share their beautiful cars. The weather turned out cool to begin with but warmer as the day went on. Thanks to the guys who come out really early in the morning and get those pits going. The food was good.

However, when you see those bags lit up after dark, it is a beautiful sight.
