     We are looking for a few good Soup Chef's, two judges and lots of soup loving people to come out and participate in the blind tastes test of the soups.  Each participant will be able to vote for their two favorite soups.  Our judges will consult on their top soup.  A special judge and award in honor of her late husband Chef Martin Bleck this year will be Janet Bleck (form owner of Subterra).  Chef Information
     Our guest speaker this year is Dr. Susan Inman who will speak about her educational toolkit.  Knowledge is Power – Creating Awareness to Combat Human Trafficking. Working with professional educators, community leaders, parents, and students, we’ve developed a toolkit that effectively empowers our communities to combat these horrendous crimes.   Dr. Inman's Bio.
     Then there are the auction baskets that are always creative, exciting and desired.  There is so much to look forward to, especially  new "soupers"  and those we've meet before.
