They probably don’t want the shout out nor do they do it for the credit but they deserve it!

A HUGE thank you to James & Allison O’Brien for donating our porta cans for the PLSR Cook off!

This is a BIG deal and takes one major expense off our team’s plate!

So thank you both for all of your hard work to this team!
