Last night, we thought we would have a good turnout. We went expecting 30-35 people to show up in our precinct. There were 7 precincts meeting in the Milliken town hall. We quickly realized we were in trouble. There were more people than the community room would hold. Our precinct alone had over 90 people show up!! We were moved to the seniors' room down the hall, and it was packed out!
This first picture is before the caucus in the community room. I was showing people which part of the room they should go to. If they were on my list, they were in our group. The second picture shows Rowen handing out information at the start of our meeting in the seniors' room. Not everybody had arrived in the room yet, so the picture does not adequately convey the crowd we had.
The Lord helped Rowen to run a great caucus. He was a wonderful committee person. He made the job look so fun that there were 6 volunteers to be committee people for the next 2 years!! We elected 2 of them, but made sure to pick ones who had spouses who wanted to work too! We have been delegates to the district and county assemblies other years, but with so many enthusiastic people present, there were plenty of other people eager for those positions, so we will be alternates.
