The 2^nd Annual KLC BBQ & Fund Raiser was a huge success. Over 230 chicken dinners were served. People enjoyed eating, drinking, talking with neighbors and friends, listening to live music, and winning some great raffle prizes. The KLC cleared over $2080 to help its efforts to improve Kinderhook Lake. Photos of the event can be found in the GALLERY.

Such a successful event would not have been possible without the tireless group of volunteers who donated their time and many local businesses who donated gifts for raffle prizes. The KLC sends a hearty thank you to all who helped.
