Big thanks to the BOC MAD Sr Appreciation Day planning committee and all the vendors, supporters, volunteers, and organizations that made this year possible!

They had so many door prizes, skins, hoghead cheese, fried fish, BBQ chicken, c**n, chicken feet and rice, smoked chicken, smoked hog, collard greens, green beans, yellow rice, baked beans, potato salad, italian cream cake, coconut cake, apple pie, peach cobbler, bread PuddCobbler, tea cakes, cookies, just everything lol!
