From the Gyrofest chairman, Bill Stathakis:

A personal thank you to our sponsors of the 20th annual Greek-Mediterranean Pastries & Gyrofest. The sponsors are vital to our success.

The 20th annual event was our first year to run out of gyros due to large attendance on Friday night of the Gyrofest. Thank you, supporters!

To those who we disappointed, we apologize and for the orders we did not get right. -- Our inventory of gyro product is based on history plus an added increase of gyro meat. Please understand, this is not a business: therefore, we cannot use extra food product next week or so in a restaurant.

Thanks to the Good Lord for the weather breaking in our favor and for the safety of our Team members.

Proceeds to benefit outreach cause. -- The event was organized by The Shepherd's Guild, a registered 501c3 service organization.
