Hi!  How May We Help You!

Meet the 2010 Board of Hog Capital Barbecue, Inc., who along with many wonderful volunteers, put this Hog Fest thing together.  Pictured above, front row from the left, are Vice chairperson Bonnie Peterson; Co-chairperson Robyn Resch; and Co-chairperson Kaye Finney.  In the back row from the left are: Secretary Larry Flannery; Vice chairperson Janie Metscaviz; Treasurer Niles Reamer; Vice chairperson Anne Murchison; and Vice chairperson Mary Ashpole.

Committee members include: Kevin Burnett, Rick Dennison, Richard Dykes, Kyle Engstrom, Joe Feeney, Jeff Finney, Ron and Annette Finney, Mary Jo Folger, Ken Gutschlag, Terry Huff, Arlene McNaught, Kathy Miller, Corrinne Murchison, Kevin, Ruth and Teresa Neuleib, Howard O'Neil, Keith Resch, Bill and Ruth Anne Scott, Marcie Spiker, Ted VanWassenhove, Kelli Wallace, Kris Wexell, Terry, Marge and Wally Wickey. 

And then there are all the individuals who just show up each and every Hog Fest weekend, not wanting any credit, who start in cleaning, grilling, selling tickets or doing all the things that make our community shine throughout Labor Day weekend.  You are the true "stars" of this production we call Hog Days!  Thank you!

     
     
     
All of our Full Committee meetings are always open to the public and you are welcome to attend.  If you have a specific item of business you'd like to talk about, let us know in advance so we can add it to that meeting's agenda.  All meetings listed below begin at 7 PM.  To print the meeting schedule, please click here.
