Perfect day for Root Beer Floats

After Cape Elizabeth’s 2014 Family Fun Day at Fort Williams was rained out, the 2015 gathering of family and friends on June 13 was clearly the antithesis.

With perfect weather, a large, care-free crowd, amazing views of sailboats in Casco Bay and, of course, iconic Portland Headlight in the background, this version of Family Fun Day was all you could have hoped for — including for our church’s Root Beer Float Stand.

Once again organized by Jim Tammaro and supported by 15 volunteers, the church’s primary fundraiser for the summer was a huge success with more than $525 in profits.

Thank you to the Shipyard Brewing Company for donating cases of its Capt’n Eli sodas and to Derry (Elvis) Rundlett for paying for the purchase of ice cream from Kettle Cove Creamery and Cafe.
