Placitas Appreciation Day





Saturday, June 5th was one of the hottest days on record for June. We reached 100 degrees! It was also Placitas Appreciation Days which was held at The Merc. This is the fourth time I have attended it and it is always so much fun! Teresa (our Transaction Coordinator) and I served up over 200 snow cones. Jim Maduena and Ken Koch helped us most of the day. It was great serving up icey treats on such a hot day! Lauren Herman, Gail McGough-Maduena, Julie Denison, Lynn Koch and Jaime Coulter also helped. Teresa's husband, Loren Morrison, my husband, Vince Leonard, and Jack Hostetler grilled over 400 hamburgers and 200 hot dogs. The Merc supplies the meat, buns and all the toppings each year. There were a lot of people who had booths and there was wonderful music at Blades Bistro. What a fabulous day thanks to everyone who attended and to Tom Ashe who always makes this happen every year!
