2009 CAC Party
On September 13, about 80 CAC volunteers and guests gathered at the WSB studios to celebrate the year's accomplishments. The party was fun, with studio tours, pictures with Clark, great food...and a "Tacky Table" contest! (It was so hard to choose the tackiest, everyone won!) Enjoy these photos from the party:
