Conrady said the Youth Fellowship Committee consisted of 10 members, all between 10 and 19 years old, and they had help from a variety of people in the church, including their youth leaders, Angie and Coley Werth, and a committee of adults who assisted with food preparation.

During the evening, the young people made their way around the room, serving drinks, delivering plates of cake and cookies, and visiting with their guests of honor. In the kitchen, several folks continually worked, making sandwiches and keeping veggie trays, chip bowls and drink pitchers filled.

About halfway through the evening, Orville Schaffer took the floor and introduced the Werths, Conrady and Tonita Reifsteck, who was guiding the kitchen crew. Workers in the kitchen were encouraged to come out as well so veterans and their guests could recognize them for their efforts, but they all suffered a sudden case of shyness and just waved from the door.
