2011 Ethnic Enrichment Festival


Whew. We hosted another booth this year at the Ethnic Enrichment Festival in Swope Park, Kansas City. The weather buffeted us about, what with the wind on Thursday night causing us to perform a major repair on our facade Friday morning, or the rain late Friday night which caused its own brand of havoc on our booth. But, all things considered, the wonderful volunteers served terrific food to 40,000+ attendees. This year we added dates and almonds to the offerings. Did you get a macaroon? We ran out by sunset on Saturday thanks to the persistent marketing by Nissim. We donated our leftover kosher food (lemon juice, almonds and dates) to Kansas City Jewish Family Services.
