The Trophy Cup Wonder Workers really have their hands full as they are busy from the moment the Friday morning sun comes up until the group meets for a late night snack at IHOP after it was all done on Saturday night. They do it all and begin by getting the large bulding by decorating it and then monitor the auction items, move them to the taco feed, help serve the tacos, clean up and tear down the decorations and put up new ones for the spaghetti feed on Saturday at noon. They get the spaghetti ready as Ray Williams is the cook, and everyone else makes the salad, warms the bread and gets to serving the crowd when they come in. Then clean up and continue on thru the race and until all auction items are claimed and the loading up is done. They are busy. There are a lot of family and close friends that do this every year and for what... Make a Wish and the racers.
The auction table started behind the grandstands on Friday, then was moved inside for the Taco feed and the Spaghetti feed, then returned behind the gandstands to finish up.
