The Saturday Morning brunch raised $250 which will go towards having a live band dances with a local band. We think TooLoose and Captain Leory are so great! Diners enjoyed Cajun-Zydeco music and a great menu of sweet potato pancakes, andouille sausage with cheddar cheese grits, fruit, eggs, fuzzy navels, + more! Nancy Matela managed this event.
