Jessica Lehl driving her team of mules followed by her father Rob Henrekin and his team of percheron horses. This was the Rich Ranch's annual Community Appreciation Day.
The Seeley Lake Lions Club held their annual Chili Cookoff. There were eight entries. This year Michelle and Joe Saalfeld's "Texas Style Chili without beans" tied with Jon Kimble's "Chili Verde" for the winners of the popular vote. No celebration is complete without Christmas goodies. Raeann Henrekin and Melissa Knight made all of the cookies and goodies for the Appreciation Day and Rachel and Pete Feigley offered music during the chili tasting.

WOODWORTH - With the snow drifting down outside, it was warm inside during the Rich Ranch Community Appreciation Day Dec. 12. Adults enjoyed the chance to visit, listened to holiday favorites played by the Feigleys and judged the Chili Cookoff. The younger generation played in the snow and loved seeing Santa when he stopped by to visit and hand out goodie bags.
