Senior Picnic fills venue nearly to capacity
MOSES LAKE — The Commercial Building at the Grant County Fairgrounds has a maximum capacity of 770 people, and the crowd at the Senior Picnic Wednesday came mighty close to meeting that. “We had 612 meals served to seniors,” said Debbie Doran-Martinez, executive director of the Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce. “We had 34 vendors, and most vendors, there were two people there. I don't have an exact headcount. There's a few that had three and four, but most of them had two.” Add to that 24 volunteers from the community and 34 from the Columbia Basin Job Corps Center, and that’s a whole lot of people.
