We get to see everyone we know in Artemas, all on one evening. It is a true neighborhood event, put on as the culmination of the Little League season and as a fund raiser for the new ball park. The food is donated and made by the mothers of the Little League players. For a donation, you get to eat dinner and drink tea and lemonade, with all the desserts you can eat. It wasn't until later when I noted another jar for a donation for the home made desserts. And the real draw is the blue grass group, complete with banjos and guitars and singers. They were the real McCoy.
It was small town living at it's best. At the same time you could see men pitching horseshoes, kids hitting in the home run derby, young children playing on the playground, and everyone else eating and chatting. We were there almost two hours and we talked to everyone we know. It was great fun. We left while everyone was just relaxing and listening to the music. Enough is enough.
