The day was developed and hosted by the Horizon Steering Committee and funded through the Horizon Project and local contributors. Committee members include: Jay McLaughlin, Sara McFall, Jensi Smith, Josie Zaragosa, Leah Pedersen, Amanda Wunderle, Donna Montgomery, William Schuster and Marvina Randle. Contributors for the event were: The Glenwood General Store, Alicia McKenzie, Roger Kuhnhausen Trucking, Darrel Spies, Hansen and Spies Logging, The Townhouse, and the Vancouver Sportsman Warehouse. A special thank you is extended to Steve and Kay Hoodenpyl for their generous use of the property, located on Main Street. The days events included games, food, and prizes for young and old. Everone enjoyed the gunnysack race, egg toss, pie eating contest, elk bugling contest, and rubber ducky race. A free barbeque meal with burgers, dogs, salads, and desserts was served throughout the day. Thank you to the Glenwood School GEAR UP cooking club, Josie Zaragosa, Jensi Smith, and Amanda Wunderle for their help in preparing the salads and desserts for the event.
