Belfair's "Taste of Hood Canal"

Mike and the NBM PEN Man check out the classic cars on display at this year's Taste of Hood Canal in Belfair.

Hundreds of people were in downtown Belfair on Saturday, August 12, 2006 for the North Mason Rotary Club's 5th annual "Taste of Hood Canal."

The weather was perfect as people visited the many food vendors and sampled a variety of yummy and "tasty" treats, including the world famous North Mason Chamber of Commerce grilled oysters.

The North Bay Mortgage PEN Man was on hand, strolling through the crowd in the PEN suit. As usual, he was quite a hit and brought smiles to both children and adults wherever he went.

North Bay Mortgage provided live music for the event with performances by three popular local bands: the Rhythm Rockets, Sounds Feasible and Cabin Fever.

This year's classic car show was the biggest ever, with nearly 100 shiny entries on display. And just for FUN, we had our big yellow antique fire truck on display, too!

Mike Boyle serves as president of the North Mason Rotary, which is a service club that provides money and support to many local school and community projects.

Net proceeds from the Taste of Hood Canal will be used for college scholarships, Relay for Life, North Mason Literacy program, the North Mason Christmas community event, North Mason Food Bank, Rebuild America and the Boys and Girls Club/ North Mason Branch.

To our friends in the Belfair and North Mason area, thanks for stopping by our booth!
