it looks like a pretty good turnout for a most worthy charity...way to go kids. I enjoyed the photos and saw some folks we know there...some good
ponytails too. Thanks to the organizers and participants of this fun event.

I thought it strange that there was no $2 window to place your bets, but then I realized that the pigs were not wearing their numbered jerseys either.
Maybe next year?

Oh, after looking at Pompano's pictures I see the pigs have their numbers spay painted on so I guess there may have been some under the table betting
going on.

A special thanks
The Rotary Club of mulege would like to thank all the volunteers whose hard work and dedication made the Pig Race fund raising event a BIG success.
A special thanks to all you Nomads who patronized the event. We sincerely hope you enjoyed yourselves!!
We hope you will consider coming to our next event, the Chili Cook-off scheduled for March 6th. Also we need people to enter the contest with their
favorite chili receipe. Send me a U2U and I will see to it that you get a copy of the contest rules.
Also, Thanks to Mulegena and Pompano for posting the pics!
