ANNUAL HUNGARIAN HARVEST FESTIVAL

We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your participation and support at our recent Harvest Festival. Your presence as a guest or your invaluable contribution as a volunteer made this event truly remarkable.

The food at the festival was nothing short of spectacular, thanks to the hard work and dedication of our talented chefs and culinary volunteers. Your support in this regard, whether it was preparing, serving, or helping behind the scenes, contributed significantly to the festival's success. We are thrilled to share that our food sold out in record time, which is a testament to its deliciousness.

The music and dance performances were the heart and soul of the festival. Your enthusiasm and participation in the festivities added to the vibrant atmosphere, making it an enjoyable experience for all.

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to the venue, the Millner Heritage Winery, for providing us with such a beautiful and accommodating space. Their generosity and partnership were instrumental in making our event a success.

If you have any feedback or suggestions for next year's event, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are always looking for ways to enhance the festival experience for our guests and volunteers. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Board of Minnesota Hungarians
