Our Market Staff and Volunteers once again did an excellent job providing local goodies and wine to all of the guests watching and cheering on this awesome transportation feat.
    • Next step is to erect the Tower - we will keep you posted. CHECK OUT DTDF's Founder and President, Ken Scheidegger on You Tube.
