ty center will be laden with a
variety of dishes and desserts
brought by participants.
There will be at least four
apple presses to fill and
c'rank, and folks are welcome
to either pick the Dawn ap-
ples or bring their own.
Interesting additions to
the presses over the years
have been pears, wild grapes
