The French Market was a huge success — and it didn’t happen by luck.
It happened because of an incredible group of people who showed up, stepped in, and made it all come together.
To our Board and team — your energy and commitment were unmatched.
To the teachers and students — you brought the spirit, the fun, and worked harder than anyone.
To our volunteers, Coast Guard, neighbors, and friends — you are the backbone of this event.
From setup to breakdown, from the first guest to the last bid… it was truly a special day.
Grateful. Proud. And already thinking about how we top it next year 😉
Thank you all ❤️ Debra Paulus
